What happens if you include the CSS <link> tag inside the <body> of an HTML document instead of the <head>?

Well, this question is beginner-friendly but invites thoughtful consideration before giving an answer.

πŸ€” well, I'd say it would lead to no good. For starters it will lead to a delay of the application of the css styling, since the style will only be applied after the browser encounters it during parsing, which could definitely lead to rendering issues.
