Hi Eli, there’s another issue about “completion-regexp-list”.

I launched Emacs with “-Q” and evaluate:

    (advice-add 'describe-variable :around ;“C-h v”
                (lambda (advice-added-function &rest arguments)
                  (let ((completion-regexp-list '("^\\([^-]*$\\|\\([^-]+\\(-[^-]+\\)-?\\)\\)$")))
                    (apply advice-added-function arguments))))

to filter out symbols “*--*”.

Then type “C-h v advice TAB”, I can still see some variables whose names are
“*--*” (e.g., “advice--bytecodes”).  Though “string-match-p” says that
name doesn’t match:

    ELISP> (string-match-p "^\\([^-]*$\\|\\([^-]+\\(-[^-]+\\)-?\\)\\)$" "advice--bytecodes")
    nil
