Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported command, browserify -p tinyify index-D9djZuPL.js -o index.js, using the supplied bundle and the versions in package.json. Inspect the generated bundle around the reported parser position and tinyify's handling of it; done means the command completes without the Unexpected token error.
