yeah as I also commented on the sibling comment the real thing here is that the way you program a clojure application or a common Lisp application especially because I used to use Steelbank common Lisp so I can talk about that is you immediately go into the REPL and you jack in it's actually a little bit difficult in clojure to do that compared to common lisp.

But the mental model is fundamentally different. It's not like you write a bunch of code, set a breakpoint and see what things are. You essentially boot up a lisp image and then you make changes to it. It's more like carving out a statue from a piece of rock rather than building a statue layer by layer.
