I propose completion for the package manager conda. Since fish ships with support for completing brew, pacaur, pip, etc, I think it is appropriate to also include the rather popular conda.

# Complete using -n to select the given conda subcommand
# and passing the rest of the arguments to `complete`
# The goal here is to reduce clutter in the definitions below
# This function will be deleted at the end

That's probably not fantastic since the name is so generic.

If the user has a function with that name, you'll first redefine and then delete it.

Call it __conda or something.

Move create out of the for-loop since there's no shared part.

function __fish_conda_needs_command -a cmd
# We need to filter out -x and --xx options so as to complete
# the arguments of said options
test (string match -r '^\w+' -- (commandline -opc))[-1] = $cmd

I'd be really careful with test - it has some surprisingly sharp edges. This'll fail when the command substitution returns nothing, and it effectively does the same thing __fish_use_subcommand does.

We do have __fish_seen_subcommand_from, which just tests if a given word has been given. Usually I'll do not __fish_seen_subcommand_from $allcmds (where $allcmds contains all the subcommands that the command accepts).

That's still not perfect, because it'll see something like git -C log as using the "log" subcommand instead of the argument to the "-C" option. To do it properly, you need to actually know which options accept arguments - see how the git or systemctl completions do it - kinda complicated, right?
