Not sure why they did that in that case, but it is probably to reduce the amount of times they need to review your changes to the Wiki-wide scripts. While each edit to .Js in the mediawiki namespace will need a new review,, simply adding or removing scripts from MediaWiki:ImportJS doesn't require any special wikia review because only scripts that were reviewed previously will actually load.

As far as your scripts not loading, they generally take some time before the cache is cleared and they work again. If you have issues with staff edits, you should contact them directly about it through C.
