This will break many repos that have clippy on them. I think that it's a good idea to make collapsable-if allow-by-default on 1.87 and enable it back in 1.88 to give people time to adjust.

I don't know if this is possible now after the fact.
If it's not, maybe it's something that could be considered for the next time this happens?
