   You can also argue that loading a Custom Theme should overrides setq's
   since Customize also overrides them.

That is different.  The user explicitly sets individual variables
through Custom.  We decided that Theme values were alternative
"standard" values, that the user should be able to override.  `setq',
minor modes and so on override the regular standard values, so they
should also override the alternative "standard" values set by themes.
That is the only way to be consistent.

Sincerely,

Luc.
