Should it be loaded after zsh-completions?

As per https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions#manual-installation, compinit should be loaded after completions.

As it seems autocomplete loads compinit itself (#215 (comment)), so does it mean that it should be placed somewhere after zsh-completions? Or I can't use both?

I also am wondering, in this repo description it specifically mentions the following:

Remove any calls to compinit.
Add near the top, before any calls to compdef:

source /path/to/zsh-autocomplete/zsh-autocomplete.plugin.zsh

Is it really important to place this near the top of the plugin loading file (I use antidote for plugin management), or is it sufficient to remove any other calls to compinit and be placed before any calls to compdef, regardless where it's placed in the file that loads the plugins?

Did you ever get an answer to this? I'm wondering the same thing. I'm not using a package manager however.
