It used to be the case that subr-x functions were deliberately not
documented in the manual:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2014-01/msg00994.html
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2019-04/msg01222.html
A few seem to have snuck in since then:
- string-clean-whitespace
- string-fill
- string-limit
- string-lines
- string-pad
- string-chop-newline
- replace-region-contents
Yet the manual makes no mention of subr-x as a non-preloaded library
(though some definitions like if-let and when-let are now autoloaded).
So a bit more consistency would indeed be nice, e.g. via autoloading all
definitions documented in the manual, trimming recently added but less
important subr-x definitions from the manual, etc.
