xterm defaults

Trying to update my xterm settings and realized that .Xdefaults and .Xresources did not make an difference
until I ran
After this xterm saw the changes.
Hope this saves someone else some grief!
until I ran
xrdb ~/.Xdefault or xrdb ~/.Xresources
After this xterm saw the changes.

I think X resources are an example of poor design. You waste time and memory at every login to load resources for application you may not even run.
I wonder if there are still applications with no other means of configuration.
