So if block styles aren't loaded on demand, this will load every single style for every single registered block on the frontend? This had been the default experience for classic themes, and prior to 6.9, this could mean a lot more styles get enqueued. But with Core-64099, classic themes now enqueue block styles on demand by default. That is, unless you have opted out via a plugin like Load Combined Core Block Assets.
