Additionally, I initially found (some #{:y} [:x :y :z]) to be
confusing. The documentation of "some" (and or, in turn) uses the
phrase "logical true" - I initially assumed this to mean actually
true, but I suppose what it means is "not false or nil".

In that case, it makes me think of the degenerate example (I realize
this is slightly stupid):

(some #{false} (list false))
