"Processes local and package scripts in /etc/rc.d" is listed as the last
thing rc does after boot.

What does "Processes" mean in this context?

Naively I would think this means that the scripts are all executed.  But
that seems odd in this context as most of (all of?) the scripts take an
argument that they pass to rc_cmd from rc.subr, and rc is not passing
"start" to all those scripts.

Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Init it seems my naive
assumption is correct, but why run all those scripts?

I am puzzled.
