I actually think that including the word "plugin" is confusing, because
it can mean "the .vim file in the plugin directory". Basically "plugin"
is used both for that plugin/*.vim file and for the whole thing,
including syntax, indent, etc. file.

I think it's important emphasising that it's about a path (being added to
'runtimepath') and no actual loading happens.
