Comment (by westonruter):
I have a solution I like for changing the priority:
https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10449
However, I think it may make sense to back off of increasing the
`styles_inline_size_limit` as well. Instead of bumping from 20K to 50K,
perhaps it would make more sense to meet in the middle at 35K or 40K.
Note the graphs showing the LCP-TTFB for Fast 4G
([https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/wpp-
research/pull/201#issuecomment-3447997500 raw data]) and broadband
([https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/wpp-
research/pull/201#issuecomment-3448044083 raw data]) from #63018. In the
two graphs, the uncached curve starts to flatten out at 40K:

Reducing the inline limit wouldn't solve the problem for the
[https://make.wordpress.org/core/2021/10/12/proposal-for-a-performance-
team/ page in question], however, since the oEmbed discover links appear
at byte 178,831. So reducing reducing 10K-15K of inline CSS would still
leave them above the 150K threshold for discovery.
