The embedding code in !615 only ever adds to sys.path. It doesn't remove
anything.
If you worked with the default sys.path, it'll stay working with !615.
If you worked because you added paths to sys.path by setting PYTHONPATH
in your environment, it will stay working with !615.
How is this harmful?
