Just an idea: predicate dispatch can be combined with protocols into one thing, eliminating the need for defrecord-like things at all. Low level types defined with deftype, higher-level abstractions defined with that "dynamic protocols" thing. It'd be fun to play with it :)
Don't you think the nth implementation is kind of smells bad with all those nested ifs? How do you feel about "anti-if campaign" [1]? Wouldn't it be easier to implement nth with interfaces (no predicate dispatch is required, open by default)? Disclaimer: I don't want to criticize your code or something, I'm rather trying to understand your vision of the problem. It would be fantastic if you've written a blog post on it.
