Enhancement request: Please add simple, list-only `delete-if',
`delete-if-not', `remove-if', and `remove-if-not' functions to Emacs.
Simple list-only versions are fine. It seems silly to load cl-seq.el,
which in turn requires cl-lib.el, just for such mundane, simple
workhorses. In my libraries I redefine one or more of these (for
lists only) for individual libraries, to avoid users having to load
another library just for such a function.
This has been requested several times before, I believe.
In GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 1, x86_64-w64-mingw32)

cl-seq.el? I thought that everyone uses seq.el nowadays
where seq-filter and seq-remove are autoloaded.

Yup; seq is the recommended interface, so adding functions like these
would just be confusing. Closing.
