Question: why not styles.css?timestamphere format ?

styles-timestamphere.css -> I have to handle to rename the files AND rename the links to them

styles.css?timestamphere -> I only need to rename links (in index.html or header/footer partials or where ever I have my css/js)

Is this a browser support thing ?

Some proxies and servers had problems with query strings so renaming became a best practise instead.

Google it ;)
