That's the one I prefer (the first one).

I was not talking about such a change. Someone else was talking about
making a change which would not affect elisp `if's, but would have the
side effect that Common Lisp `if's edited with `lisp-indent-function'
set to `common-lisp-indent-function' would indent like the elisp
`if's, instead of both the THEN and ELSE parts at the same indentation
depth as they currently do. Apparently, Lawrence Mitchell didn't like
that.

I was merely stating that I think the Emacs way to indent `if' seems
*much* better to me even for Common Lisp `if's.
