That is what I think too about this point.

By "the right meaning" I mean the right choice, judged on the
practical criteria.

If what you want is to ignore the last cdr of one specific list, it is
hard to find anything simpler than `. ,_'.  But that approach becomes
messy when you need to put it at the end of many lists in one pattern.
One of the first pcase examples I saw needed to do that.

So I added a way to change the default locally for whether to check
the last cdr or not.
