I believe that was me...

BTW, if there are major objections to the language, I should point out
that the new `buffer-match-p' in Emacs 29 uses the same language and has
already found usage in a number of spots in core Emacs.  There would
still be time to address any issues you might have, and avoid a
long-term mistake.
