I also wanted to bring attention to this snippet, which if uncommented
might be a lot more controversial than the actual content of the library
itself. More generally, if a compatibility library were to be used more
widely, it would offer a possible route to update old defaults, such as
in this case, adding NonGNU ELPA to package-archives, or perhaps update
the default values of the IRC servers used by rcirc and ERC from
freenode to libera. If this could even be excused (and I get why people
could have issues with this), it would have to be used very
conservatively to not interfere with any existing configurations.
