I don't agree that it's a nice feature. I don't even understand why
we give up so easily on elisp-mode support for such "data files",
something that should be quite natural, and instead want some
"inferior" mode based on file names and manual turning on of the mode.
It simply feels wrong, as file names have nothing to do with the
actual issue of doing TRT with Lisp data.
But this all was already said many times, we just keep going in
circles with no new arguments anywhere in sight.
