Bullshit. JavaScript execution can be either synchronous or asynchronous, depending on a attribute of the script tag. CSS loading only blocks rendering of content that appears after the <link> tag.

Your viewer is not as fast as modern browsers in rendering, so that's why loader is necessary until the page is fully rendered.
My viewer is a modern browser. Chrome, to be precise.

Try this: Set custom Unicode font (heavy font, I have Bookerly), take book with a lot of pure text (~200KB per chapter) and see youself what I'm talking about. I see garbled text/paragraphs for sometimes as much as 1 second.
As I have already said, twice before, you wont with the next release.
