+  // HISTORICAL CONTEXT: There used to be a condition in the HTML standard that
+  // said an "outer" script must be "prepared" when a node gets inserted into
+  // the script. BUT it also stipulated that if the insertion consists of any
+  // "inner" (nested, essentially) script elements, then this "outer" script
+  // must prepare/execute after any of those "inner" newly-inserted scripts
+  // themselves get prepared.
   //
-  // Once `s2` is finished being inserted, the condition to prepare and execute
-  // `s1` is met, and it is processed accordingly, which includes the execution
-  // of the text that `s2` added to `s1`.
