Another approach, which might or might not be better here,
is to put these customiaions into major modes.  There are
many Emacs features that, by convention, major modes
should customize.

I don't have an opinion aboit whether this approach would be better
here, I simply suggest consider the question.

The cost of a transient like that is easy to justify
for switching to the approach that is best in the long term,
If there is a switch to be made, now is the time to do it.
