On further thought, I agree with you that reading the docs may make people expect to be able to pass an ID selector for a script block to $.templates("#myTmpl") even when jQuery is not loaded.

In addition, it is convenient, as an API.

So I am adding support for it, as a feature improvement, in the next update.

I will also update the docs to indicate that other jQuery selectors can be used too, but only if jQuery is loaded.

Thanks for calling this out!
