add_action( 'enqueue_block_editor_assets', function () use ( $wpide_remove_block_styles ) {
    wp_register_script( 'wpide-remove-block-styles', false, array( 'wp-blocks', 'wp-dom-ready' ), '1.0', true );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'wpide-remove-block-styles' );
    wp_add_inline_script(
        'wpide-remove-block-styles',
        sprintf(
            'wp.domReady(function(){var map=%s;Object.keys(map).forEach(function(block){map[block].forEach(function(style){wp.blocks.unregisterBlockStyle(block,style);});});});',
            wp_json_encode( $wpide_remove_block_styles )
        )
    );
} );
```

## Notes

Blocks already using a removed style keep it until edited.
