bug#44330: 26.3; doc string of `cl-some' |

"Return true if PREDICATE is true of any element of SEQ or SEQs.
If so, return the true (non-nil) value returned by PREDICATE."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The second sentence is meaningless/underspecified. If the function
stops as soon as it finds the first element for which PREDICATE is
true then the doc should say that it returns the value returned by
PREDICATE _for that element_.
Without specifying, in some way, for which element the application of
PREDICATE returns non-nil, "the value returned by PREDICATE" has no
meaning.
