Function(script) not equal eval
Eval run code
Function only creates a function

It looks to me that the code « Function(script) » will not execute.
You can make it a Self-Invoking Functions « (Function(script))() »

Great point @Omsteker ! It's missing that extra pair of parentheses, one key difference from eval.

I should probably split the whole eval / Function discussion into another article, because it's off topic compared to using appendChild
