I think that's the wrong way to think about this.
The default for `cl-pushnew' should be `eql'
because the default for CL `pushnew' is `eql'.
End of story.

If a better default predicate exists for Elisp
then Elisp should add its own `pushnew', using
that better predicate as default.  It shouldn't
substitute that predicate as the default of
`cl-pushnew'.
