MobileOK Checker recommends to limit the total size of all web page...

In a simple case the set of used linked CSS files was divided into
5 files, but only 3 were included in 10 pages, others are used
indirectly, via those 3. My mobile phone does not cache anything.
My computer caches all three used CSS file, size is just a bit bigger.
Not taking into account the size of (pseudo)classes identified as
totally unneeded traces from old times.

I am not certain yet how to take it.
