Sorry if you thought I was blunt in my answer and the links I pointed to did
not make it clear that by reducing HTTP requests and avoiding imports,
amongst other performance techniques, a user will experience a faster web
site.

I am using <link> to load stylesheets. When developing, I prefer to keep
style sheets separate, e.g. layout.css, typography.css, content.css,
header.css, etc... This is beneficial especially when working as part of a
team with source control. Smaller files are more manageable than one, single
large file. For production though, as few files as possible is desirable to
reduce the number of HTTP requests.

Thanks for your help everyone.
