> Emacs will searching file with a suffix even the dir is not exists.

You don't say why you think it's a problem.  It's been doing that for
decades, and it's quite common to have a non-existing directory in
`load-path` (e.g. the `<ROOT>/share/emacs/<VERSION>/site-lisp` if you're
running Emacs "in place") yet it's never been seen as a problem.
