Not to derail the thread, but I do not recommend attempting to use that
function; I wrote it when I had a far worse understanding of the
completion system (and by pulling bits from various other functions I've
found online and in Emacs).  A far more robust implementation of the
same idea can be found in Daniel Mendler's Consult package (although
last I tested it also had issues with Eglot).
