This is a footgun. You'll get a very consistent flash of unstyled content. It's not just an aesthetics issue -- when layout shifts in the middle of a page load, as your "non-critical" styles are applied, and user is interacting with something, it will kill your usability.

isn't the whole point avoiding FOUC, while also avoiding to block the rendering for CSS network requests?
