Hey, I replied in the ticket with some comments. The main issue I see is that I'm used to the notion that IPersistentLists are things which are not lazy and which have next/rest parts which are themselves IPLs and this approach seems to cause that no longer to be the case. If it were not to be the case, then the question arises why maintain the list/seq distinction at all. Will be interesting to read further opinions on this!
