[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The argument is that the design is wrong.

Either icomplete-vertical-mode is a regular user option or icomplete-vertical-mode
should enable icomplete-mode too.

Many people would second this

Sincerely

I think that works as designed -- as the doc string says:

"Toggle vertical candidate display in `icomplete-mode' or `fido-mode'."

So the mode can't just switch on icomplete-mode by itself, because it
works two different modes.

Closing.
