package-load-list controls which autoload files for installed packages
get loaded.  Setting it in init.el works until package.el clobbers
the init file, putting package-initialize first.

Same as above, calling package-initialize before setting archives, one
won't see the correct archives.

This is even documented in (info "(emacs) Package Installation"), albeit
not thoroughly--only package-load-list is mentioned explicitly in this
context.
