Comment (by sabernhardt):

 > full unnecessary new file

 PR 9019, still in draft status, contains two files: `_blocks.scss` and
 `style.css`. Twenty Nineteen patches need to edit both the SCSS and the
 compiled stylesheets. Front-end style changes should include a third file,
 `style-rtl.css`. @shubhtoy You probably need to run `npm run build` a

 > not 100% convinced about that `root` solution

 The `:root .site` selector has a specificity of `0-2-0`, same as `.entry
 .entry-content`. While I would prefer to reduce the specificity if
 possible, `:root .site` theoretically is safer, with less chance of
 regressions in the content area.
