Using either is somewhat subjective. Saying lets just drop these in a sec to all package authors seems overreaching. You write like lets just remove cl-lib and forget that is existed. As mentioned elsewhere cl-lib isn't just sequence functions.. It does sound again like there's someting wrong with cl-lib because it's cl-lib.
