Unless you want to argue that core is magical, I don't see how you could possibly maintain that claim of consistency.
It is perfectly understandable that the documentation in this and other areas may sometimes be lacking and lagging with Rich's focus on forging ahead. Keeping that in mind, it is very strange to me that you would suggest treating it as authoritative for the sake of writing code. A more realistic answer would be that much about Clojure is still in flux and that you shouldn't count too strongly on things staying the same, even if it's in the documentation. -Per On Thu, Apr 1, 2010 at 4:02 PM, Meikel Brandmeyer <m...@kotka.de> wrote: > Hi, > > On Apr 1, 10:42 am, Per Vognsen <per.vogn...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Are you serious?
