Hi! I reply below:

Did you send the patch? I have searched debbugs and have not found any
such submission. I care because:
1. It significantly pollutes the *Messages* buffer, which can mask
important warnings such as when Emacs loads a .elc byte compiled file
that is older than its source code.
2. For people who byte-compile Elisp files from a Makefile, these
messages causes significant pollution, masking byte-compilation warnings.
3. For people who use the nativecomp feature (from a guix channel),
the native compilation of *each* Emacs package yields loading messages
for *every* Guix-installed Emacs package, resulting in O(n^2) growth.
