You said that cl-loop would be more comfortable if "it doesn't have to
feel like you are using a whole new language, but instead these are
just keyword arguments to an unusual function call".

I'm pointing out that this is wrong -- they are not keyword arguments,
and if you think that they are, you're going to be using it wrong.

In other words, it is a whole new language, not just keyword arguments.
