When-let is just functionally the same in the example provided. I think the point was actually about threading. I’m with Garklein on this subject. In my day job I program in Clojure and can attest to these threading macros being very valuable. 
If Eldoc doesn’t work well with these macros, it sounds like some improvements can be made to Eldoc as well.
