For the purpose of the library normalizing that can be
a good idea.

It is not a bad thing to have several ways to do things, but
in Lisp they also tend to do several things each depending on
context. So it is a m*n curve. A lot of Lisp project gets out
of hand with complexity, this is perhaps not the main reason
but it is one of them.

So if one can stick to a subset methods and a consistent style
at least for one file it is good :)
