It might just be me, but I also find the cost of the explicit coupling that is re-use is often far more expensive than any saving offered by re-use of a bunch of text. I also find this _more_ expensive in Clojure than Java as refactoring in Java was pretty robust (IntelliJ is incredibly powerful for this).
