You can prefer anything you want, but (a) to say that Clojure prefers loop/recur is nonsense, and (b) you can't make an incorrect algorithm work just by preferring it. Jeff is correct that your algorithm requires space for each level of the tree, and so cannot be converted into a constant-space algorithm. You can convert it into loop/recur by using up a bunch of heap instead of a bunch of stack, but there's rarely much point to doing that.
