It’s similar to expand-region, where repeatedly pressing a key expands the
active region to enclose larger and larger constructs, words, statements,
defuns, etc. I guess the selling point is that it’s simpler to configure and
supports tree-sitter—weak justifications, but people liked it and requested to
have it on ELPA, so I happily followed suit.

I’ve always thought of GNU ELPA as the “default” ELPA, so this is intended for
GNU ELPA.
