Indeed, I did not mention Bootsnap so as to detract the core point.
> That's one of the things Bootsnap does to speedup boot time. And when you do that, there's no compilation at runtime.
Correct, if one does `bootsnap precompile`.
Bootsnap hooks itself on `Kernel#load` + `Kernel#require` and `RubyVM::InstructionSequence#load_iseq`:

Essentially this means that it makes LOAD_PATH lookup faster + intercepts iseq compilation to store to cache on a miss and return a cached version on a hit.
That does not change the load order.
> But that doesn't change anything about OP's suggestion, it's still impossible to know if an interface will ever be implemented.
Again correct, as even with `bootsnap precompile` it would only result in earlier ISeq generation (it is essentially cache priming instead of doing it "lazily" on demand), not the time at which these ISeq get loaded and effective, so even then an `abstract` keyword would be ineffective.
