Purpose of jde-autoloads

Hello everybody,

I was thinking about purpose of autoloads and IIUC its sole purpose is to lazy 
load parts of JDEE. But what for? Maybe 10-15 years ago it was speeding up 
loading of JDEE, but now the difference is marginal. The only function I would 
see in autoloads would be something like this:
(defun jde-start ()
   "Start JDEE."
  (require 'jde))

Rationale: If someone would install JDEE (e.g. from elpa) it wouldn't slow down 
Emacs startup. But user could load it anytime using M-x jde-start when s/he 
would like to open a Java project.

What do you think about it?
I nobody mind or answer by the end of the week I'll reduce jde-autoload to the 
one method.

Cheers,
Przemysław
