PSA Googlebot tries to render pages to understand what they look like, to better understand the value & context of your site's content. This requires that your JS & CSS files be crawlable. Don't block these files for Googlebot in robots.txt, if you want Google to understand your site optimally.

@johnmu.com blocking _rsc payloads on React / Next.js sites is still fine?

I don't know React that well - you can roughly test by blocking the URL in Chrome dev-tools and reloading the page. If the content loads & displays, it's probably fine.
