Subject: bug#70784: Abolish string resizing
Date: Sat, 25 May 2024 13:24:06 +0200

`store-substring` now removed from the manual (nice to see it getting smaller for a change).
It should probably be marked obsolete as well -- any objections?

Regarding resizing `aset` calls, what about adding the proposed warnings to Emacs 30? They are not expected to be seen much, and it gives users ample time to change some old code that may remain.

In any case, we'll know soon enough (that's one good thing about warnings).
