OK.

OK. I'll take your word for it. But it's not what I
expected.
I'm no expert on package.el or how most people use it.
It seemed odd to me that just installing should, by
default, also automatically load everything installed.
But I guess that's a misunderstanding on my part.
I use `load-path' and `require', and I've put tons of
stuff in my `load-path' that I rarely, if ever, load.
I imagined that many package users would similarly
install stuff they don't want to load systematically.
