Hey all, I'm having some pain with atoms and dereferencing nil - mostly around my functions sometimes returning an atom and other times nil - I don't really want to create a special 'nil' atom and do the bits for returning that and I don't want to be checking nils absolutely everywhere when nil-punning works perfectly otherwise, so I was wondering what the pitfalls of this approach would be?
(extend-type nil IDeref (-deref [_] nil)) Effectively, make @nil nil-pun to nil. makes sense to me?
