ah nice, never realised that, thank you. still it'd be somewhat more consistent to import ExceptionInfo:
(throw (Exception.)) (throw (IndexOutOfBoundsException.)) (throw (IllegalArgumentException.)) ;; ...there's quite clearly a pattern here, which many are accustomed to (throw (ex-info "" {})) ;; ex-info (however more pleasant is it to type) breaks that pattern OTOH, I see ex-info is "alpha, subject to change" so relying on Java constructors may not be the right choice right now.
