Colorscheme is not an option. ":colorscheme abc" is nearly the same thing as ":runtime colors/abc.vim" (with an addition of a few other commands like ":hi clear"). You should instead ask why ":set filetype=abc" sources ftplugin files. Options other then &filetype and &syntax do not source any files.

Also note :compiler and :behave commands: they are similar to :colorscheme.
