    i am wondering , why not put an option to put the JS file inside html , inline , when it is short.

    i think it would be faster to read small code from html , than to get it in other file… i think some critical size need to be find.

    but i see many small file in theme or some plugin that just start some basic jquery stuff…

    the problem is that linked JS can be cached as to avoid having to be re-downloaded, which would not be the case for inlined JS. moreover the execution of inlined JS is still render-blocking if I remember correctly, so if the code in there would be slow(-ish) for some reason it could slow down the initial rendering of the page.

    moreover if you’re talking “basic jquery stuff” you need jquery to be available, which itself is a linked file and thus render-blocking (the next version of AO CCSS will have an advanced option to try to fix that), which limits the gains you could have from using critical css.

    so from a perf. point of view having all JS autoptmiized and load deferred is still the best option I think ??
