Comment:
@vanonsopensource OK, you mention `theme.json`. I've been able to
reproduce the issue with the Hello Elementor theme in which case no block
styles get enqueued (including the `classic-theme-styles` which gets
enqueued when there is no `theme.json`). So in the Elementor case, the
logic in `wp_hoist_late_printed_styles()` is falling back to appending the
`global-styles` to the very end of the `HEAD`, which is the wrong place as
the `global-styles` should be getting printed where styles are printed
normally.
It would be helpful if users experiencing this issue could share the URL
for a page on their site where the issue can be observed, and then also
have the [https://github.com/westonruter/load-combined-core-block-assets
Load Combined Core Block Assets] plugin active. This plugin has a query
parameter that allows for the hotfix to be bypassed, which will then allow
me to compare with and without `should_load_separate_core_block_assets`
enabled.
