Web Style : Do webmaps create any dependencies on the web style?

I have a question that on a previous similar topic @RussRoberts was able to kindly provide help with.

---

When creating and sharing a public facing Web Style's (2D) are there any dependencies created by the maps/weblayers etc that ultimately use them?

Scenario:

- A Webstyle is created and shared publicly

- An external party finds and uses some symbols in this Webstyle for their own layer/item and webmap product

- The Original Webstyle item is removed and then perhaps superseded

 

Would the external party's product be affected? I'm wanting to understand if Web Styles have an underlying connection with the products that use them or if they are much like stylx files in ArcGIS pro where the style is 'given' to the map layer but has no relationship afterwards.

 

I hope this question makes sense! 

Thank you
