jQuery dependent script ignores $in_footer bool and doesn’t work in header

It’s all about poor typo, I put one extra parameter '' before dependency parameter:

wp_enqueue_script( $plugin_short_slug, plugins_url() . "https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/" . $plugin_slug . '/js/' . $plugin_slug . '.js', '', array('jquery'), '', true);

should be:

wp_enqueue_script( $plugin_short_slug, plugins_url() . "https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/" . $plugin_slug . '/js/' . $plugin_slug . '.js', array('jquery'), '', true);

Now my script properly loads in footer.
