 In practice this means that step 10 of [Neovim Initialization](https://neovim.io/doc/user/starting.html#initialization) is done by Lazy:
 
-1. all plugins with `lazy=false` are loaded. This includes sourcing `/plugin` and `/ftdetect` files. (`/after` will not be sourced yet)
-2. all files from `/plugin` and `/ftdetect` directories in you rtp are sourced (excluding `/after`)
