 * So if we disable the Gutenberg editor and use the Classic editor, I guess we 
   don’t need the CSS file they force into our non-Gutenberg websites?
 * Maybe it’s an idea to add this to the plugin, or make it an option: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52277629/remove-gutenberg-css](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52277629/remove-gutenberg-css)

 * I’ve been able to dequeue those scripts using a child theme, their names are 
   wp-block-library and wp-block-library-theme. I used wp_dequeue_style().
 * Totally agree that if one is using the Classic editor, they should not be loaded
   as they shouldn’t be used.

 * This was discussed earlier: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/block-editor-assets-still-enqueued/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/block-editor-assets-still-enqueued/).
   For now you can disable it by making a tiny plugin and dropping it in mu-plugins,
   however eventually that CSS may be needed by your theme or if you even change
   the Classic Editor plugin’s settings.

 * Sorry, didn’t see that topic.
 * I’ll add it to functions.php on all my clients old/current websites that will
   never use the Gutenberg editor and reconsider for future websites.
