Shouldn't your argument be that closure equality should _always_ be tested (testable) using just `eq'? Is this really about `add|remove-hook'? Why would they be special in this regard?
This could be discussed. But a change in equality would be much more impactful.
There are reasons why one would want to allow structural equality testing for closures. I don't see a problem with it if I opt-in explicitly by using `equal`. It is still the wrong equality for `add/remove-hook` which should be robust. And currently it is not.
