Not this time. My anecdote for this round of controversy is the
obsoletion of if-let at the whim of a select group of people in the bug
tracker, exactly when most users have just integrated it into their
muscle memory.
What is this doc string meant to imply, for example?
This macro will be marked obsolete in Emacs 31.1; prefer `if-let*'
in new code.
Why is there now a manner of "pre-obsoleting" functions?
