> The primary problem is it doesn't try to abstract away the DOM

Clojurescript has heavily bought into React. No cljs programmer I know deals with the DOM, but rather uses a React-based library to do it. Personally, I use re-frame and reagent and haven’t needed to interact with the DOM myself in years. I find working in cljs a LOT more productive and pleasant than working in Javascript (which I also use a lot, although if given the chouce I’d use cljs instead).
