Placing your JavaScript into a code page should be the last thing you do. Normally you develop the script by working exclusively in the console as it is faster than updating the code page repeatedly.
There is nothing inconsistent about how $.getScript() works. The jQuery team has pounded out any problem with it years ago. You can use Shift F5 to force a cache reload. See:

I agree. That questions would have to be answered by QuickBase directly. The IOL technique is a workaround for this limitation.
