If you want to create or add items to a quickfix list, then you can pass
the items
either through the {list} argument or using the 'items' key in {what}. The
{list}
argument is kept for backward compatibility reasons. When setqflist() was
introduced, it supported only the {list} argument. The {what} argument to
modify the various quickfix attributes was added later.
If you supply the {what} argument, then the {list} argument will be ignored.
Maybe that's implied by this line from :help setqflist:
