Oh my, I feel so stupid now...
No worries.
I was under the (wrong) assumption that a destructive
function will always modify the list, when it's not the case.
I needed to setq the result of cl-delete-if to the list
itself to cover all the cases.
But then you wouldn't have had the opportunity to read the
docstring (again?). :-D
Thanks!
Emacs is self-documenting but unfortunately not self-explanatory
(yet). Thanks go to the Emacs hackers who write docstrings.
