You'd have to modify every tutorial out there, including books. That's not
really feaseable. The right ways to fix the issue you're running into with appscript are1) Wrap your script into an .app bundle that includes the LSUIElement setting (because appeartly you are writing an application that is an agent-style application)
2) Research why appscript causes the icon to appear on the dock. As has noted it should be possible to avoid that because the ScriptingBridge framework doesn't have this problem.
The second option would be the most useful for the community, but is way harder than the first option.
