I don't think it's any of those things 😈 and it certainly feels a lot less natural than

```javascript
const template1 = new HTMLTemplateElement();
template1.innerHTML = ` ... `;

// Hypothetical
const styleSheet = new CSSStyleSheet(` ... `);
```

Both are familiar, one is possible now, the latter is easy to polyfill.

Both are asynchronous but static imports are done before the rest of the code is executed.
