Regarding the unexperienced audience you appear to target with your guides, I think there should be at least a footnote that informs about this risk and perhaps also mentions that this is called a "redirection", as a starting point for a related websearch.

Simple enough to change this into:

user@devuan:~$ echo "xfce4-session" >> ~/.xinitrc
