Because the right fix is not to have the condition at
the end of emacs-lisp-mode at all, as I explained
in the previous email.  I.e handicapping a mode depending
on the buffer file name the mode applies to is wrong. IMO.

The only intention I have is to revert the commit you added,
add an emacs-lisp-data-mode according to Stefan's and Dmitry's
suggestion, and use that mode for .dir-local.el. I'd also appreciate
such a mode for other lispy data files I have. Anyway, last time
I checked, you opposed this (very?) strongly so unless that stance
has changed, there's not much for me to work on.

Let me know,
João
