Well that's interesting and good to know, thanks! That doesn't seem
obvious from looking at mentions of "Xdefaults" in either the X(7) or
xrdb(1) man pages, unless it's implied in this from xdrb(1):

    Xrdb does not load any files on its own, but many desktop environments
    use xrdb to load ~/.Xresources files on session startup to initialize
    the resource database, as a generalized replacement for ~/.Xdefaults
