Can scripts ran from the `scripts` module be given arguments?

Scenario is as follows, I have a simple build-script type situation going on for building something with cargo, then installing it and cleaning up build deps I'd like to make it more re-usable, so instead of hard-coding the git repo URL I wanted to take it in as $argv[1] (in fish) But I am unsure, if I do something like:

- type: script
    scripts:
      - build.fish "argument"

- type: script
    scripts:
      - build.fish "argument"

will the argument be passed to the script? If not, I can deal with that

Removing files pulled in by packages reliably?

So, the cosmic-greeter package also pulls in the entire Cosmic desktop, whilst I can't change that, is there a good way to make absolutely sure that the COSMIC Session won't appear on the greeter? Whilst the lazy way of just blanking out the session's .desktop file worked for sway, that does not seem to apply to the COSMIC session, which still appears in the image, so this is not consistent enough. Removing the other cosmic-* packages isn't possible as that throws an rpm-ostree conflict (duh) Anyone got ideas?
