Expected

The stylesheet loaded on every page should only declare the fonts and character sets the site uses.

Actual

BaseLayout.astro and index.astro import each Fontsource package's default stylesheet, which includes @font-face rules for Cyrillic, Greek, and Vietnamese subsets. Those rules make up 24.6 KB of the shared 38.5 KB stylesheet, and Lighthouse's unused-css-rules audit reports 13-15 KiB of unused CSS on every page.

Additional Info

Found in a Lighthouse audit of https://squiggleconf.com. All site content is within the Latin and Latin Extended ranges.
