What worries me the most about clojure and languages like it, is that seems to be for people who want to be clever with how they write programs, when that is the opposite of what I want from people I work with.

Yeah. Personally, I really love writing Clojure. But I’ve never run it in production because I have the same reservations. I’d be the overly clever dev in this scenario.
As opposed to the paradigms of beautiful design that are Java codebases.
What does a bad java program have to do with a language who's advantage and use case is to be clever on an expression level?
