A textpattern "form" with inline styles, only gets loaded once and when a change is made to it every page on the site is globally updated.
You may only have one file to edit, but what gets sent to the browser is still a different page for each entry with the inline styles needing to be downloaded for each individual page. What you're describing isn't unique to Textpattern, that's how all CMSs work - they use template files but the HTML doesn't get 'loaded once' and it doesn't get cached; only CSS in an external stylesheet gets cached.
