> But a module embedded in html needs script's insane parsing rules. That's why <module> doesn't work and we need <script type="module"> instead.


This isn't immediately clear to me; would you mind explaining?


I guess part of it is clarifying which part of "<script>'s insane parsing rules" we're talking about. From what I'm aware of there are quite a lot of different insanities; but I am fuzzy on the details. Does anyone know which rules are inherently necessary, and which are historical accidents or constraints?
