Could you repeat the gist of that argument here, please? I just
skimmed the previous thread again, and the only thing I found that
sounds like an argument against removing `package--ensure-init-file'
is that it would disadvantage users who already have an init-file and
start using package.el. But I already addressed this argument in the
first bullet point of the "Disadvantages" section of my email
beginning this thread.
