Just don't draw too many conclusions from them, as they reflect the search patterns used (or, fundamentally, my limited imagination).

It's not even sure the author would think of the logic as `equiv' or `xor' in every instance. For example (from a random package):

>	      (cl-assert (eq compilation-result
>			  (not (eq (car (last (car test))) 'vo)))

This is detected as an xor pattern, but it's really an assertion of the value of `compilation-result'.
