I said I agree with you.  So go there and replace cl-list* with nconc.
Or put it in a much smaller preloaded file, it doesn't have
dependencies.  Or just define it in terms of nconc if it's really equivalent.

But cl-lib usage and usefulness is really much more than that tiny aspect
you're focusing on.
