Sure I got it you keep "." as it is for you a way to load scripts from
current directory wherever you are. That way you load those from
directory.
To me that defeats the purpose of load-path, as it is normally used
from scripts, loading or requiring should take place regardless of
current directory, it is not much interactive.
By the way when I am in Dired, I am thus changing current directory,
and when I wish to load file not in load-path, I just use key `L' and
load arbitrary file interactively.
