I agree. Everyone is aware about the historical discouragement about cl
things, but we have no understanding if such discouragement is still relevant
today. We need some certainty so we can adapt our code accordingly.
ecase, and case are older than CL.
But this isn't so much about CL or not CL. If CL has specific useful
macros or functions, they surley can be added to Emacs Lisp if there
is good reasons for them. Emacs Lisp isn't CL and doesn't try to be,
for very good reasons.
