You do, but you don't notice that often, because:
- - only a small fraction of tiles is updated in any observable timeframe.
- - most updated tiles are rendered by only a few active participants who
usually keep up to date, the rest contribute a rather negligible amount.
- - In the past there have been quite a few version bumps which also
forced the style update.
