Uh, I did not suggest any change wrt the use of `user-error', here.
Unfortunately, it is the appropriate type of error to use in this case.

There has been abundant discussion of `user-error' in other threads.
Its meaning is not a user error.  The meaning is any error except a
coding error, i.e., except something that the code never expects to
happen.  That's OK as a category, perhaps, but it should not have the
name "user-error".  But it does, and we live with it.
