When I first reported `gnus-summary-clear-local-variables' as an
effective no-op I was not aware of the fact that it has been a no-op
for many years. See <87vfesg14j.fsf@xenon.eswe.dyndns.org> in
gnus.gnus-bug (bugs at gnus.org).

`gnus-summary-clear-local-variables' is most probably unnecessary and
should be entirely removed.
