What is the purpose of the optional JS script fields?

just as info this one works also with sailfish browser

[defaultuser@MotoG2ndGen ~]$ cd rdrview/
[defaultuser@MotoG2ndGen rdrview]$ ls
Dockerfile   FUNDING.yml  LICENSE      Makefile     README.md    rdrview      rdrview.1    src          tests

then use with .e.g. sailfish-browser:

 ./rdrview -B sailfish-browser https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/reader-view-function-in-native-browser/25062

It would work this way with any browser. I learned about it through Dillo browser plugin.
