EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are
satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If
you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale: The premise of this bug is false: not all scripts depend on each
other. The primary use case for async="" is a third-party analytics script or
ad script, which can be completely independent of all other scripts on the
page.

(If there is another problem, please file a separate bug just describing that
problem.)
