Cider’s completion understands a `complete` op, so the middleware is the best approach if you ask me. The only reason that there’s also an eval based completion mechanism (the one used by default) is that clojure-complete is present as a REPLy (which is used by lein) dependency and many newcomers have absolutely no idea what an nREPL middleware is. Unfortunately it’s hard to balance initial easy of setup and good design decisions.
