Exclude a specific CSS file

You would need to use a technique like this: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/web-platform/prerender-pages#hold-back-other-content

This example is for a script tag, but the same technique could be used for a <link rel=stylesheet> tag.

Thank you, so as I understood it, the only way is to add the CSS file via JS?

Correct. The other alternative is to use prefetch rather than prerender.

I understand and thank you very much for the explanation ??

And perhaps a better way to do this page load transition is to instead use the newly-supported cross-document view transitions now available in Chrome and Edge.
