Ah, of course. But then I'm afraid of a time penalty cost, because
apply can take many arguments; would this be significant? Or should I
stick to #(%)?

Clojure 1.0.0-
user=> (def a (constantly 55))
#'user/a
user=> (time (dotimes [_ 500] (a)))
"Elapsed time: 0.389 msecs"
nil
user=> (time (dotimes [_ 500] (apply a)))
"Elapsed time: 0.923 msecs"
nil
