If there is visual-lines -1 + truncate-lines that takes care of this in
a consistent way using the internal infrastructure. Why should I use
something else?

Did you added truncate-lines locally?
As I said before, the patch was preliminar and needs some fixes I do
slowly as I am not a lisper. I just diff my local changes to send them
to you

The changes indeed do only one thing at the time and it separated the
vertical from the horizontal completely. Which is IMO simpler that just
add if and else conditions here and there or hard code the mapcar
ignoring the user separator.

You can do it if you want. No problem with that. Actually I tried to
convince the creator of the external package to do it and asked in the
mailing list some months ago if anyone wanted to do it and nobody
replied.

This is not a big change at all. This is just some cosmetics to an
output. I don't interact with he completion system and the code is not
complex at all.
Actually it is just 2 functions. The rest is the same just in a
different place. But actually your code and mine do exactly the same
just using different conditions.
If you see my first commits it was almost as simple as yours but then
reports started coming and I needed to fix them unless some of them
(like the disappearing prompt) were old bug already reported.
IMO this is an incremental change, but I don't try to compete for a
smaller patch but simpler and free of known issues. Like the ones you
are reporting.
Best
