Can I get the CartoCSS from a mapbox map?

Say I'm linking to a map made by someone else kitsunde.foo-bar-foo, is it possible for me to discover what CartoCSS was involved in rendering it?

Nope! CartoCSS is a pre-processor for Mapnik XML styling. When you upload a style to Mapbox from Mapbox Studio Classic, the CartoCSS is converted to Mapnik XML, and by the time it's actually in the browser, it's been combined with the vector sources and rendered into a static image. The CartoCSS is never stored on Mapbox's end.
