I wouldn't say "no dynamic variables" is necessarily a good
recommendation, just "don't force users to use dynamic variables". On
the Clojure wiki, the "Library Coding Standards" has this piece of
advice:
If you present an interface that implicitly passes a parameter via
dynamic binding (e.g. db in sql), also provide an identical interface
but with the parameter passed explicitly.
