It seems to me the reducers framework is clearly documented to either
need a computable identity or to have an initial value. Given that, it
seems reasonable that for such functions that don't have a computable
identity you would need:

(r/reduce func (first coll) (rest coll))

[perhaps that's why there was no response in this thread?]
