That's obvious, I understand.
The reason I want Emacs 24.1 (or Emacs 24.whatever) is that a user of my
package complained about not having alist-get (and earlier about
time-add not supporting Unix times as inputs, which seems to work on
Emacs 25 - albeit not documented), and I want to be able to support that
version, too. And it's more convenient if I can test locally and not
ask him every time I fix a small problem.
Best,
