`alr init --lib` skel package should be pure/preelaborable

Else we lose the opportunity for more preelaborable libraries

On the other hand newcomers might get stuck on a strange error message...

I see your point. I don't really know what is better, as preelaborable packages can help in reducing elaboration circularities.

Perhaps also adding some comment that it is perfectly OK to remove it when circumstances demand it?

Getting back to this. I still think it's not a good idea for beginners, and experts will know when to use Preepaborate. So I would close this issue.

Understood.
