You're playing semantic shell games here. The user has no reasonable way of knowing that stripe.js came from stripe, and as such, there are no technical OR human controls that enforce that behavior.

In short, the fact that stripe.js is delivered from stripe DOES NOT MATTER, because the user CAN NOT reasonably validate this behavior.

I know you're not dumb over at Stripe; I have a hard time believing that you're not willfully lying. After all, "disrupting" onerous industry security standards is to your competitive advantage.
