No, I did mean exactly what I wrote.

I know. But lots of users don't and they so quote, hence using the syntax
that would be correct with `pcase` but that has a "subtly" different
meaning for `cl-case`.
That's what I meant by "even easier for some people".

What's the benefit (other than having to learn 2 subtly different
things instead of just one)?
