| Loaded by the :mod:`site` module when ``-S`` is not given, :file:`.pth` files | ||
| can contain lines that both extend :data:`sys.path` and execute arbitrary code | ||
| when the line starts with ``import`` (followed by a space or tab). The latter | ||
| functionality can be problematic, since it is difficult to know exactly what | ||
| gets executed when Python starts up. |

Let's link something to the new _site-pth-files reference here, perhaps link ".pth files"? Would likely need the :file: markup removed.
| Python 3.15 introduces :file:`.start` files which contain entry point | ||
| specifications of the form ``pkg.mod:callable`` where ``pkg.mod`` is the | ||
| import path to the given callable. When Python starts up, the callable is | ||
| located and called with no arguments. |

And link to _site-start-files somewhere here, perhaps ".start files".
