The docs seem to suggest that the user can explicitly decline to save backup files?

https://docs.racket-lang.org/drracket/drracket-files.html#(p...

Presumably offers can be declined?

"When DrRacket first starts up, itlooks to see if there are any backup files still present and if so, offers to restore the backup files"

That is a DrRacket feature, and nothing to do with staring the REPL in a clean state.
