'(discard-input)' was added to swallow some initial events.
Without it, 'sit-for' in 'minibuffer-message' doesn't wait
2 seconds to display the message. Such events occur only
at Emacs startup, and they need to be discarded to display
the message for 2 seconds when the minibuffer is activated
to ask a question about loading the desktop or visiting
a file with local variables loaded from the desktop.
We need first to solve the problem with initial events
before removing '(discard-input)'.
