The documentation in the Emacs Manual suggests that simply
loading foldout.el alters the behavior of Outline mode.
Is that true? If so, it is a bug.
Someone who uses it, please respond.

I don't use foldout, but from what I can see, all it does is to add
some extra keys to outline-mode-map. All the extra functionality is
bound to those keys. Is that a problem? (dired-x does the same thing
for dired, after all).

Yes and no. Just loading a library should not change Emacs behavior,
since use of custom can load the library. Defining added commands
that don't shadow anything is on the borderline, so it is not really a
bad thing. Still, it would be cleaner if the user had to call a
function to call to enable the changes made by the library.
However, I guess we don't need to change that now.
