No, it may turn away potential scripts, but people can still
contribute to other areas of the project. The whole point here is
that, while some contrib/ content may be useful for developers
personally, they don't have specific value for the project. As a
project, we should let these scripts find homes which best suite them,
and our repository isn't it.
