Well did you check the stylesheet of Twitter for instance? Only 40K but even then.. why even that big for a simple Twitter homepage!? So I'm sorry you did not convince me. And maybe, I know it's a bold statement, they are doing it wrong. I think it also has to do with frameworks. Sometimes frameworks spit out a lot of HTML you won't ever need. So the HTML is bloated in the first place. Then it's a hell of a job to style the mess. When you are fortunate to control the HTML you should first start to optimize your HTML before you even start with CSS.
