How to hook on paragraph deletion?

I'm on D9 and I've a paragraph inside a content type node.

I need to hook when the paragraph is deleted to do some custom logic and set up a queue.

I've tried hook_entity_delete, hook_entity_predelete or hook_paragraph_delete, hook_paragraph_predelete: those hooks run during cron, if the node containing the paragraph is deleted.

However, it seems to me those aren't triggered if an existing paragraph ...

How to pass an argument to a hook without creating a custom module?

I need to attach a theme-agnostic ("global") CSS file to the preprocess_hook() function so that any theme I use, would include that CSS.

I want to do that without creating a custom module because while I am a programmer, I am just not a PHP programmer and I find the documentation about creating custom modules overkill for this specific goal and I won't learn this entire subject just for a CSS file.

Hook for field not triggered when using delta in template

I tried to hook my Link type field with machine name "field_link". This field is rendered in template using delta index to extract some values, e.g.:

I have noticed that when I use content.field_link[0] or content.field_link.0 my hook HOOK_preprocess_field__field_link(&$vars, $hook) is not triggered. But as soon as I use content.field_link the hooks works.
