Of course that rubric applies only to consumer apps. There are many reasons why guidelines established from consumer research don't apply to developer tools, given the very narrow and highly specific demographic developers represent.

We're developers. The script editor puts up its own menu bar where several options can be changed on the fly. Variable checking and commenting are handled in the Edit menu, and I'd put a "Show default scripts" toggle there. It seems intuitive and consistent to me. The Debug menu is another option, but not as closely related.
