Symbols are sometimes interned by Emacs itself, just as side effect,
even if you never load any file.
Uninterning symbols is even more irrelevant than unbinding, it's like
searching and grabbing single bacteria from the floor using a
microscope. Don't do it unless it is your hobby and you really enjoy
doing things like that.
