Really? I mean, true, I see it a lot in (mostly older) config snippets Google spits up, but I thought it was generally discouraged to use a hook if there's no need for it, because it's not always as harmless as this example. (In fact, I've run into problems with it myself from
time to time.)

Well, how do you modify stuff that isn't defined yet? I don't see much
of an option other than using a hook or its equivalent.

Isn't that what `eval-after-load' and `with-eval-after-load' are for?
