Absolutely not.  I can't imagine anyone using ‘guix refresh 
--list-updaters’ in scripts.

If somebody (=again, not me) does object (=a thing I definitely 
will not be doing), I'd still make the change but special-case an 
‘-L’ as the last argument as a deprecated alias for 
‘--list-updaters’.   With a big fat warning that it will stop 
working one day.

Thanks!
