How does page bloat affect other metrics, such as Google's Core Web Vitals? Poorly executed stylesheets can create a host of performance problems, ranging from stylesheets taking too long to download and parse, to improperly placed stylesheets that block the rest of the page from rendering. This falls short of Google's threshold of 2.5
