Sorry, I don't understand: what frames? We are talking about
non-interactive situations, no?

Why? In "emacs -Q", the desktop you have is ephemeral; overwriting
your last "normal" invocation's saved desktop runs a very real risk of
wiping out precious information. The desktop file isn't versioned, so
you just lose it forever. How can this ever be TRT?
