How about this wording?
but other files need them even if encoded in UTF-8. However, if an *.el
file is intended for use with older Emacs versions (e.g. if it's also
distributed via ELPA), having an explicit encoding specification is
still a good idea.

Thanks. It was exactly how I interpreted it.

I don't mind having a difference in opinion, if you don't object to
reverting db828f6. Having Elisp files default to UTF-8 is a good
feature, and you're proposing to effectively ignore it.

Sorry about the strong wording. Apparently, that's how I react to a
perceived feature/workflow regression made on purpose (not sure how to
phrase this better).
