i have a script that i call from the Project Library in the Pipeline Block Editor. it has some `system.perspective.print()` calls. will that stop the execution of the script? i ask because when i directly use `system.perspective.print()` in the PBE itself it stops dead at that point.

Alarm pipelines have only gateway scope, not Perspective, so that group of functions doesn't exist. If you look at your logs, there's probably an error report that ".... doesn't have attribute `perspective`" or similar.
