>>> Typing TAB or ? in M-x find-library shows .el and .elc files when it
>>> probably should just be the name of the library without the extension.
>> I added the `push' because in load-library I often want to
>> select a particular file (i.e. either the .el or the .elc file).
> Doesn't M-x load-library and specifying no extension load the .elc?

Usually, yes.
