If it does create the problem depends from a viewpoint and experience, knowledge, many various factors. Initially, when I discovered `fido-mode' and `icomplete-mode' I was disappointed as `helm' and `ivy-mode' look so much better and user experience is safer. There is high chance for me personally to make mistakes in the built-in completion modes. The function `icomplete-vertical-mode' should maybe be split into 'fido-vertical-mode' which would invoke `fido-mode' automatically, and `icomplete-vertical-mode' which would invoke `icomplete-mode' automatically'. It is yet in the development version of Emacs, it is not finished issue, even if it is, there is always room to improve it. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
