That's what we are trying to understand, among other things. I posted
one possible explanation.

I'm not sure this is 100% true.

It's a typo: I meant "at startup time".

I don't know. I guess for some kind of backward compatibility. This
is very old code.

You assume that those hypothetical people didn't take care of that.

Then I don't understand your objection at all: when Emacs starts up,
there's only one X server that can be relevant: the one where Emacs
shows its first frame.
