Fair enough, but in this case types wouldn't really have helped: the author did use `Double` type hints, mistakenly assuming that would make its code use primitive types, which it does not since `Double` is boxed and not primitive. Clojure already has compile time warnings about boxed math that would've helped in this case if turned on, without any need for types: try compiling OP's code after running `(set! *unchecked-math* :warn-on-boxed)`
