Description
It shouldn't matter that some scripts are written by "other authors", given that collaborative authorship is assumed due to this being an open-source Git repo. Also, only the root /media/fat/Scripts folder gets added to the PATH by MiSTer, so useful/relevant scripts (such as the ones for fast USB polling) really shouldn't be buried under a subfolder.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the other_authors folder and the scripts for fast USB polling, then compare their locations with MiSTer's /media/fat/Scripts PATH behavior. Done means relevant scripts are no longer buried under a subfolder and remain usable from the root Scripts directory.
