In non-beta mode, we use mw.loader.using to get all the ResourceLoader dependencies. This is wasteful, since ResourceLoader is instructed (using Gadgets-definition) to get them anyway. We should remove the using() call, but there are two users on the English Wikipedia who import the script directly, bypassing ResourceLoader. I have asked them to change over, and in a week I'll do so anyway (as it will not result in any observable difference whatsoever). I am thus filing this issue as a reminder.

I must move the whole using() call to load() in core.js after I remove it, to preserve functionality when
betais true.
