Should Wordpress theme folders be disallowed with robots.txt?

Is it wise to allow Google to crawl about it the WP theme folders etc. which contain your CSS files? If you block access it prevents one of the 'instant previews' from loading correctly. Would this count against you or should these folders by robotted?

As far I know, the preview bot doesn't act like regular googlebot - it does not obey robots.txt, in other words.

It is the 'Pre-render Desktop Search Instant Preview' that is prevented from loading correctly if the folders containing the CSS elements etc. are robotted. The 'On-Demand' previews load fine regardless but the 'Pre-render' only appears with all the bells and whilstes if the folders are crawlable.
