How would another Lisp avoid giving you an error when referring to a symbol
that has no value?

If you just want your entire program in a single namespace, and don't want
to use any libraries in other namespaces, then simply don't use the "/"
character in your symbol names.

If you want to use the symbols in other namespaces without a "namespace/"
prefix in front of them, you can use a declaration like this:

(ns my.namespace.name
  (:require [other.namespace :refer :all]
                 [yet.another.namespace :refer :all]))

Then you can use the names of public symbols from other.namespace and
yet.another.namespace in your code without the namespace prefix.
