It was my mistake, then. I hope, though, after rereading that message,
you can agree that it was an easy one to make.

Try to imagine the consequences of project-search-path having to include
project-roots, or even some directories within them.
Take emacs-lisp-mode, it makes project-search-path return load-path,
through project-search-path-function.
Now, take an actual project implementation, like the one returned by
project-try-vc. It doesn't know anything particular about Elisp, but
there might be some directories with Elisp code inside the current
project tree. There's no guarantee that they're added to load-path, at
any given time. Should the VC project provide its own implementation of
project-search-path?

These are pretty bad names, though.
