+// The "old" HTML Standard specification text around `src` attribute mutation
+// for non-parser-inserted scripts *ONLY* "prepared"/run the script iff the src
+// attribute "previously had no such attribute". This changed in
+// https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/10188 to align with a majority of
+// browsers. This test ensures that `src` mutations on these kinds of scripts
+// *where a previous valid `src` attribute existed* do indeed "prepare" the
+// script.
