In general, setting up NoScript per-site filters (like blocking XSS, webgl or LAN resources) is more practical in some ways, and offers deeper control of resources needed for core page functionality.

Often, websites only really require their host, a JavaScript CDN, and some media CDN/cloud URI. Modern sites often insert telemetry or malware/ad services, and will load much faster without that nonsense. =3

In that case, NoScript seems to really be a misnomer. It should be called SomeScript or OnlyScript instead.

Indeed, the per-site rule sets are a relatively recent addition, but offer a better application layer filtering solution.

Anecdotally, we have seen a correlation between minimal resource domain/redirect counts, and site content quality. =3
