## Inline vs Separate Styles

### Decision Threshold

**<100 lines: Inline styles at top of component**

```typescript
import type { SxProps, Theme } from '@mui/material';

const componentStyles: Record<string, SxProps<Theme>> = {
    container: {
        p: 2,
        display: 'flex',
        flexDirection: 'column',
    },
    header: {
        mb: 2,
        borderBottom: '1px solid',
        borderColor: 'divider',
    },
    // ... more styles
};

export const MyComponent: React.
