I think it would help in hinting the user that these are not
system-wide commands in $PATH but rather scripts in the current
directory.
There's also a case for prefixing them with the full path, Debian's
pg_upgradecluster wrapper drops these scripts in a new subdirectory in
/var/log/postgresql/ along with the log files. Possibly other
automation frameworks do likewise. (Though the frameworks will likely
make delete_old_cluster.sh redundant.)
