You are aware that, even with permission to read the scripts, non root
users can't use DTrace by default?

I'm not arguing with your contention that they should be owned by root,
I'll leave others to express a view there.

There are, however, likely to be cases where non-root users are given
DTrace privileges and should be able to run the scripts. After all, if
they have the process privileges to run DTrace there's nothing to stop
them installing their own copy of the scripts and running then.

IMHO, Privileges are the place to restrict access to DTrace, not script
permissions.
