Description
Description:
Of course, the title is a reference to Shakespeare, but the rest of the issue refers to testing how much CSS we should load in the Footer for it to start giving us negative performance.
Currently:
- All the CSS bundled with the plugin loads in the header.
- All the generated CSS is loaded in the footer.
We can test and see if it's the about of CSS or the type of CSS that affects the performance, or if it's how much we load inline or from a file.

Research direction
Begin by identifying where the plugin bundles CSS for the header and generates CSS for the footer; no specific files or tests are named in the issue. Measure whether CSS amount, CSS type, inline loading, or file loading causes negative performance, then document a supported loading strategy based on those comparisons.
