Implementation example @ http://maps.ecere.com/geoapi/collections/vtp/Daraa2/styles?f=json

http://maps.ecere.com/geoapi/collections/vtp/Daraa2/styles/newNight

is an actual style resource with multiple style sheets (one per supported encoding).

We have adopted the stylesheet rel to link to the actual style sheet representation (e.g. SLD/SE, MapboxGL, CMSS) in our implementation. (Updated end-point: http://maps.ecere.com/ogcapi/collections/Daraa/styles?f=json)

This still allows to have one single style resource supporting multiple encodings selected through content negotiation. No longer sure whether there ever was an issue (that was fixed) or not.
