That is really a good catch! I found  it. It has to do with an attempt I
made to make JSmol totally asynchronous. The problem occurs if, in the
initiation of the minimization after loading, it is discovered that a file
is needed. JSmol would then have to go back and save its processing state,
get the file asynchronously, and then re-run that load command. It's an
interesting problem; I started working on it and then did not finish that.
I will now.

it is better to take what answer we get.
