The presence of the scripts is surely a sign of intent, nothing here is by accident?

So I’m wondering if it is a local browser configuration issue, or some other configuration issue.

More on livereload.js: [livereload/livereload-js: LiveReload JavaScript code that communicates with the server and implements reloading (github.com)](https://github.com/livereload/livereload-js)

It would certainly be nice to get an official word on the extent to which livereloading should work here and if it goes beyond CSS on the client side.
