but why clojure have this, reason? i am not criticizing it but i just want to know why clojure take this decision.
The syntax becomes small, predictable and, crucially, is in itself a data structure. This means that everything composes in the same way, without special cases, and it lends itself well to meta programming when necessary.
isnt it why clojure is called clojure I guess. That the reader can take closure look of there code.
