Java has arrays, lists, maps and sets, so does Ruby and Erlang. If they were redundancies in these structures, can't see why these three still maintain this distinction. It's probably a safe bet to say that we need to convey these nuances in edn somehow.
My question was meant as a preamble to the joke about asking Mrs Irma and her crystal ball :) As for the notation, I am happy that it is so terse, I can maintain my daily code line throughput even as I slowly but surely decay behind my keyboard...
