Well, I still think that when we are concerned about a working
unload-feature, the decisive criterion is that we want to be able to
restore the state before a load that actually first provided a
feature, and it does not really matter whether this load was initiated
by load, by an autoload, or by require.

All that matters is that a recognizable load added the feature, and so
we want to have unload-feature restore the state before that
particular load where feasible.
