Wow? This discussion has been between you and Stefan Kangas, and at
no point has Stefan been anything other than polite and informative!

This is how X resources have always worked (for decades) -- I can't
imagine them changing, and Emacs provides ways for you to inhibit
them (or indeed add to them).
You said you saw the problem with this:
emacs -q --no-site-file --no-splash
but not with "emacs -Q".
The documentation says:
‘-Q’
‘--quick’
Start Emacs with minimum customizations. This is similar to using
‘-q’, ‘--no-site-file’, ‘--no-site-lisp’, ‘--no-x-resources’, and
‘--no-splash’ together.
So the difference that using -Q made was equivalent to adding these:
--no-site-lisp
--no-x-resources
And as discussed, it's specifically this:
‘--no-x-resources’
Do not load X resources. You can also achieve this effect by
setting the variable ‘inhibit-x-resources’ to ‘t’ in your
initialization file (*note Resources::).
So you can use either of those solutions if you don't wish to change
the X resources configured on your system.
