No, please don't.
Two things: I explained what I think is the semantics of pcase-dolist in
a post I posted ~20 minutes ago in reply to Stefan's opening of this sub
thread. I can't be sure I've got all the details right, but I believe
I'm not far off.
If we can't get quality doc strings for pcase-dolist and friends, I say
we should remove them from Emacs. There are only around 30 occurrences
of pcase-dolist.
