ummm, why would that be less tedious?

But, as others have mentioned, you can wrap your JS in CDATA.

You could also simple use a script/@src and call in the referenced file
that contains the JS.

Or you could write your JS in a way that does not need those characters,
rather creates objects/arguments for a controller-type JS.
