>>I'm speaking in generalities here. If you specifically have evidence that real world systems written in Clojure still look this tidy, that just makes me want to learn Clojure all the more.
The number of people even wanting to learn clojure are generally going to be in the bracket of people who are going to learn not just for a living but to perfect their craft. So you are likely to find good programmers in Clojure than in Java. In fact it might be difficult to find bad clojure programmers.
On the hand other chances of finding good programmers among java programmers is going to be difficult. And your average Java programmer can't even write a fully functional program let alone a full app without eclipse doing 90% of the auto completion, and vast part of code automation happening automatically for him. So the IDE use case for a java programmer is totally different. What a java programmer needs is a tools that can program in itself with little inputs from him.
Light table is not for code automation and auto completion in itself. Its for programmers who like think instead of IDE doing that for them.
