Sometimes when dumping unused CSS, hundreds of CSS classes get dropped. The last time it as 299 CSS classes that got dropped.
I've seen some CSS files contain over 2,000 classes. It's unreal how dumb some of the publishers are when it comes to creating digital files.

Even though I always open each file in the editor to run Check Book, having the delete-unused-CSS function run during the conversion saves time, even though it doesn't take long to delete them manually. When working with dozens of files at a time, it saves time, and I will always automate anything that saves time.
