this is a purely cosmetical problem if a user specifies a script that
doesn't exist.

since live-config is supposed to be optimized for speed, your patch is
suboptimal.

it introduces one if check for all _SCRIPTS that get assembled, one if
check for all _SCRIPTS that get removed. so, for those that actually get
removed, you introduce *two* if checks, and for those who actually get
run, you introduce one if check.

it's much simpler/faster/elegant to only check the resulting scripts in
the end, once, before sourcing them.
