Considering way this is meant to be used, that's exactly the wrong
choice. The profile-file is supposed to be used for per-session
settings which need to be configured once and will then be inherited
by all future processes created from this shell and 'resource limits'
are parameters with this property. The purpose of .bashrc, OTOH, is
to configure an interactive shell environment according to the
preferences of some user, eg, to define aliases or special prompts.

In practice, this distinction is somewhat hypothetical because this is
one area where distribution packagers are very likely to express their
votum separatum on 'how this should work according to my opinion' and
in any case, this is (AFAIK) an ancient performance optimization of
little real-world relevance today.
