Comment (by boonebgorges):

 At a glance, I mostly like this method much better. Doing the logic in the
 base `BP_Theme_Compat` sense makes much, much more sense.

 The `locate_template()` brute-force is somewhat unelegant and inefficient.
 I worry about running this kind of `locate_template()` call on every
 single page load (which is what will happen in cases where theme compat
 actually ends up running). Is it possible to cache this value somewhere
 where it'll be more easily accessible? Or am I being overly concerned
 about a miniscule bit of overhead?

 The multisite/multiblog stuff is good, though it undercuts the original
 point of this ticket, which is that styles need to be loaded where the
 members/groups widgets are loaded - which is possible on non-root blogs. I
 guess the correct solution for that particular issue is to put some
 minimal styles into a separate stylesheet, and then enqueue it from the
 widget's display method.
