The dictionary says that "start using" puts the scripts before any objects in the back scripts.
I'm glad I learned a bit more about inserting scripts of individual objects though. My current library has about 5000 lines of code in it and navigating around it in the script editor is a pain. The handlers can be broken down into 5-6 logical groups so I'm thinking it might be worth my while to put each group into buttons on a card in the library stack and insert them individually instead of linking them with "start using".
