For what purpose?

Just stop layering bloat.

But what if you want to load four hundred dependant scripts on each pageload? :(

1. If you need four hundred dependant scripts to load a page you're doing something wrong.

2. Why can't you just use <script async src="/js/script.js"></script> and be done with it in the first place?

Because async doesn't do what you think it does.
