But why use Emacs Lisp CL library and complexer Common Lisp style
when it works this way simpler:

(mapcar #'number-to-string '(1 2 3)) → ("1" "2" "3")

Any reason?

Then if I am to use some function defined in Emacs Lisp, then I
would rather use this one, instead of `cl-map', as it is simpler,
it will recognize the sequence.

(seq-map #'number-to-string '(1 2 3)) → ("1" "2" "3")
