I'm using it to instrument a running development system as I'm working with
it, via an API, REPL, and tests. I've found it handy in all three places
for my :ret specs to be checked when the function runs, and quickly
detecting problems in my spec or function. I can see how :ret and :fn are
invaluable for generative tests, but in my experience it is also very
useful to check them in other places. As far as I can tell, the only
downside to checking :fn and :ret specs while in development is that it
takes marginally more CPU to check them. Maybe I'm missing something though?
