I think I understand pretty well when they are useful, in the same way as defvar-alias and such are useful.

I don't even know how that could be. By the existence of the branch with CL packages? Or by asking questions and giving, hopefully rational, arguments? And even if someone feels pressured, honestly, so what? And how is that related to your personal time situation, in the first place? I at least am not expecting or waiting for some kind of verdict. I do what I feel like doing to the degree possible. Take it or leave it, so to say. > > Let's see.
