Disagree with what? I don't understand your answer.

Your "semantically consistent implementation of (any?)" already exists in
the language. It's called "some".

Personally I think "any?" and "some?" are aptly named, and that it's the
older "not-any?" and "some" functions that mess things up.

Maybe if Clojure were being designed from scratch again, we'd have
something like "has" and "not-has?", but it's too late to change common
function names now.
