Why is this minor mode not named `use-hard-newlines-mode', to respect
the naming convention?

Reading the doc for this function doesn't even offer a clue that this is
a minor mode and that it is not global.

See, for instance, this user's question, which shows that s?he expected
the function to act globally.
