It is impossible to distinguish between a soft newline left at the end of
a line by require-final-newline, and a soft newline produced by, e.g., a
call to kill-line,
I don't see how a call to kill-line can produce a newline.
I don't understand you.
simply by looking at the context. Both are soft, and
both occur at the end of a line. Both newlines might even occur at the end
of a buffer, if that was the final line. But the first is conceptually a
hard newline
Why do you think it is "conceptually a hard newline"? I don't think
that is true.
As I understand it, the newline that ends the last line in a paragraph
is normally soft. A hard newline would end the following blank line.
The newline added by require-final-newline would be at the end of the
last line in a paragraph, so it ought to be soft.
