There are about 8 zillion things in cl-* that it would
   be more useful to add to Elisp (without prefix `cl-')
   than those functions.

I am also curious about why these things are being added?  What for?

They (as several people have mentioned) do not make code easier to
read, and we already had a quite debacle about this CLification.

   That said, it wouldn't hurt to add those functions, but
   why not do something more useful while you're at it?

   E.g., something like cl-case (sans cl-) should have been
   added to Elisp eons ago.  (And in fact if you loaded
   cl.el you got it as `case', not `cl-case', originally.)

INCF.

   Better to look for more useful parts of cl-lib...
