I think you are wrong. If I am the one in error, quote
chapter and verse, please. Where exactly does it say that?
======================================================================
/etc/emacs/site-start.el is a conffile, and is owned by
emacsen-common. This file should not be modified by *any* add-on
packages, or by any emacsen package maintainer. It is solely for
the use of the local admin. It should be empty unless the local
admin modifies it.
.======================================================================
C) Each add-on package has the right to place files into the
following directories:
/etc/<emacs>/site-start.d
/usr/share/<emacs>/site-lisp/<package-name>
======================================================================
Where does it say these are not confffiles?
I strongly suspect people are not actually reading policy documents.
