I've been saying this for over ten years. Glad the world is kind of coming around to it.

Almost all HTML is generated these days, and the information that's useful for styling is available in the same place as the information that's defining HTML. So generate the styling inline in the same place. If your address display component use a 14 point font, put that inline in the code that generates HTML for an address display component. If you need to change it for all addresses, you can change it in that code. If you need one address display to be special, use a subclass or whatever mechanism you would normally use for one special address display. Compress your HTML in transit if you're worried about the inline styles wasting bandwidth.

Already addressed earlier but inline styles ignore media queries so you may have missed the entire Web 3.0/4.0/responsive web design etc which occurred in 2012.

You mean changing the layout to be less useful on mobile (or occasionally making the layout less useful on desktop and changing to a better one on mobile)? Yeah, I'm pretty happy to have avoided that one.

I don't blame you lol
