How can custom calculated scoring/boosting data be returned with the result set

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Is there some way to return any calculated data, which is used in scoring
or boosting, as part of the result set? We need to return important
calculated data used in scoring but we try to avoid doing the calculations
twice since they are costly. As far as I can see from other threads, it
seems script_fields cannot be used in custom scoring or boosting of result
items. Is there some way to workaround this by using it in another way or
are there other means to get my calculations returned with the items
without recomputing them?

I am not sure how this works with a custom script. The API documentation
isn't very comprehensive in this regard. I forgot to mention that our
scripts would be in Python and I guess this probably only works out of the
box with mvel?
