There is indeed a documented load order:

If there are some load orders that need to be respected somewhere then
I have not seen this in the documentation anywhere (for components
anyway). If someone can point me to it then that would be great.

Also, I see no import statements in any of these CSS files so I assume
this is not an issue.
