Essentially, this is correct. As Joost pointed out, the script doesn't
actually require these permissions to be sourced, but the scripts that
source these files check for executable permissions before sourcing, when
it is appropriate. This allows you to control which services start at boot
time by toggling the executable flag.

The configuration files are sourced regardless of permissions.
