Right, probably because in both Common Lisp and Elisp that function

add it to cl-lib.el.  keep in mind cl-lib.el comes from cl.el which
didn't have the "cl-" prefix.  So Common Lisp functions that were
exactly the same in Emacs Lisp obviously weren't in cl.el, so that's
why there's no cl-elt.

I suppose that's what you get when you just try to learn the sum total of (Emacs) Lisp via osmosis. :) Now I know about a new function, though.
