True, but it helps fix the TTFX metric -- "Time to First XML" ;-) -- Derek Slager made a case for this in his talk at the Conj:

"ClojureScript for Skeptics" https://youtu.be/gsffg5xxFQI?t=20m9s

The remaining bit of Java is like "a little piece of kelp that's stuck to the hull, and even though it's little, you don't want anything stuck to the hull" (http://www.tv-quotes.com/shows/the-west-wing/quote_14096.htm...).

To be fair, the XML is listed at the very bottom as the last of the options for getting your dependencies.
