Warren, I think the issue is this:
You claim there is sg. broken in clojure while admitting that you know little about how the design decision was made. People that know clojure's implementation and the history of design decisions inside-out offered advice why they think it is not broken, they took time to explain the rationale for decision and even offerred advice how to "fix it" for yourself should you insist on your view of the matter. It seems to me you a) need to reread these arguments to perhaps get a better grasp b) have chosen to ignore them. While you have right to do either of them, if it's b) not even the "clojure gods" can really help you unless you actually spend some time with the internals of clojure. ;-).
