It's typical of the Linux filesystem, regardless of what the file is, or who it belongs to.
It's not a problem that a script is owned by root, but in order for others to run it, the permission for "others" must be open. That is, a script owned by root can't be run by others if it's 700, but it can if it's 755. Let me know if that doesn't make sense.
