That's not the intent, at least not mine.  What I intend to do is let
users do the equivalent of globally replacing yes-or-no-p with
y-or-n-p, like they do with defalias or fset.

If that is not enough for your use case with confirm-kill-emacs,
please file a bug report describing the feature you'd like to have in
that situation.  The solution might or might not be in yes-or-no-p.

It is.

It's a defcustom; you don't have to use it unless you want.
