Hmmm, unfortunate.  I thought you had abandoned the idea,
as you didn't reply to that part specifically.  The problem
is that Eglot 1.15, released in the meantime, now has
eglot-update.  So I think we should rename it back in Emacs 29,
sorry. Either that or release Eglot 1.16 asap.

Not intentional no.  Well, at least not for that commit.
Not pretty, but I wouldn't worry about it.

Is this a problem that can affect the Eglot package
specifically?  In which conditions?
