But to others it means that they can write high performance data structures in Clojure itself that other people can benefit from. To me that's far more compelling than convenient string comparison operators. Consider the implementation of gvec.clj: https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/clj/clojure/gvec.clj. I wonder what "negligible performance impact" you change would have on that? It might more sense to put what you're suggesting in clojure.string.
