The lack of complex numbers is keeping me on the fence about Clojure.
I could (and partially have) implement them in Clojure itself, but
this is not as satisfying as having them built in with reader syntax
and so on. I don't have the will right now to learn enough about
Clojure internals and how t
FWIW:
I have thought the same thing in the past. But, in practice, this has

quadrillions of lines of Lisp, but it doesn't seem to have been a
problem for those who have either.
One thing to keep in mind is that you don't typically have

I've always preferred a function like str to either of these options
anyway.
(str "Hi " someone ", my name is " myname)
