No offense to Stallman, but that doesn't really make sense. cl.el is
supposed to be helpful to programmers, not to users. If no package is
uses it because people should decide whether they want to use it or
not, then why is it there?
But I'm attacking strawmen here -- I don't know the actual Stallman's
position. I just wish the impressive amount of work invested in cl.el
could be leveraged elsewhere, like in Gnus.
