WooCommerce javascript required for non-WooCommerce elements

While optimizing the site via Perfmatters concerning javascript defer and delay options, I noticed that promo popup and cookie bar don’t function properly unless js.cookie.min.js is excluded from JS delay. I performed another experiment where WooCommerce is disabled on the front page and the two elements (via Perfmatters’ script manager), again, failed to trigger properly. Promo popup and cookie bar seem completely unrelated to WooCommerce. Does this mean promo popup and cookie bars are not unavailable unless WooCommerce plugin is installed? Is this the result of bad coding?
