Exactly. If I reconfigure my X terminal emulator to give me a login
shell, then my profile initializations are run---but they are then run
for every new shell I open, which is incorrect behavior. (It's not
uncommon to start up background programs and such [like ssh-agent] in
~/.profile, as the file is by definition supposed to be run once per
login session.)
