You can't ignore the boilerplate while you're writing it, which is a pain that I'd often prefer to avoid. You provide good reasons for preferring the approach that you advocate in the contexts in which you write programs. But people write code for lots of reasons in lots of contexts, and in some of them the minimization of boilerplate and ceremony is quite valuable. And in some of them the clarity provided by namespace qualification is not worth the extra typing and clutter. YMMV, which is really my main point. -Lee -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
