load runs, like any other verb, in the locale you start it in. When a script is loaded, the script is executed. Executing the script can change the current locale while the script is being loaded.
'convert' starts with cocurrent 'z' which sets the locale to 'z' for subsequent lines. Public assignments loaded (i. e. executed) while the current locale is set to z will be defined in z.
