[Question] Are scripts in `/usr/share/mpv/scripts` and `/etc/mpv/scripts` ignored?

Description
The README states:
jftui will drop into a command line instance of mpv when starting playback. It will use
mpv.conf
andinput.conf
files found in$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/jftui
(this location can be overridden with
the--config-dir
argument). It will also try and load scripts found in the same folder, but no
guarantees are made about them actually working correctly.
Does this mean that only scripts within that folder are loaded?
Use Case
Some plugins can be installed through the system's package manager, e.g., mpv-mpris, which puts them in either /etc/mpv/scripts
or /usr/share/mpv/scripts
.
Yes, the only configuration loaded is from the jftui-specific folder, including scripts and plugins. Unfortunately libmpv doesn't offer a simple way to cascade settings from system to user scopes like mpv does and you have to choose one single folder.
But nothing stops you from symlinking /etc/mpv/scripts : )
