It's not styling that causes that, the problem you are experiencing is that websites don't send an article to your browser, they are sending a whole application to read their api and display articles, downloading and initializing that takes up time in the critical path, styling can load after you can already see a document.

Except they're rarely doing that, because if you turn JS off, you usually get the article just fine.
The JS is tracking, ads, video play back, more ads, and bullshit you don't need, like the part where if you scroll past the end of the article they load another one instead of showing you a page footer.
