Understood, thanks.

Regarding the breakage with winner.el, I don't understand why under some
circumstances nothing seems to break if cl- functions are used at
runtime in things with only `(eval-when-compile (require 'cl-lib))`. For
instance, git-grepping for 'cl-remove-if' I see package.el and
checkdoc.el don't require cl-lib at runtime.
