I'm sorry for jumping in then. Should have paid more attention to the dates.
Nevertheless I wonder why while standing on such a solid ground, the Core team eventually gave in. I could see a use for cond->, but as-> is basically the same macro that was suggested in topics like this, and was rejected by Rich and company. Have anything changed in Clojure since then, that arguments against as-> are no longer valid?
