Note that the doc on that page says:

Basically, only a class makes sense as the first argument to new, and I
suspect new doesn't use the standard symbol resolution.
On Mon
I am trying to follow the rules for unqualified symbol resolution as listed
at https://clojure.org/reference/evaluation
According to those rules, if my symbol is mapped to a class name in the
current namespace, then that should override any (hopefully, accidental)
local bindings of the same sym
