 Replying to [comment:4 wildworks]:
 > To prevent the enqueuing of global styles CSS in WordPress 7.0, you can
 use either of the following code snippets:

 Or, perhaps, themes could opt in to this new functionality. That would
 reduce the support burden for sites running older themes or who don't need
 this functionality.

 > Personally, I'm unsure if we should be responsible for backward
 compatibility regarding CSS enqueue changes. Similar modifications should
 have been made many times in the past.

 Personally, I think WordPress should be responsible for not introducing
 breaking changes. This happens frequently with WordPress updates and is
 always resolved by the project eventually relenting and patching the
 undesirable behaviour.

 > I'm not sure if it's worth adding such special handling to
 `wp_enqueue_global_styles()` for the sake of backward compatibility.

 I'm not sure if WordPress should be introducing code which breaks or
 disrupts their users' sites.

 I think I am being reasonable. Don't break users' sites. Test new
 functionality. If you really dont want to make new things opt-in, then at
 least make it trivial to opt-out - preferably in a documented and
 consistent manner.
