This defeats the purpose of defer and async [1] [1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W

  How so? It's the same as the old HTML, but with fewer round-trips.

    defer and async are about eliminating round trip latency by opening multiple simultaneous http connections. Multiple TCP streams are sometimes faster than one. (I say sometimes, because negotiating a new connection has an overhead)

      But then they are not loaded in sync. That's not the purpose here. Works for some situations.
