Take a look an Parinfer https://shaunlebron.github.io/parinfer/. Which essential makes clojure a whitespace language with indent mode.

Super interesting.

I wonder if the creator has considered just not having parens at all?

Interesting, I should have been clearer when I said not just no parens, but also just whitespace instead of any syntax characters. The none language uses both () and "". Sweet expressions use {}. And indent-clj uses () and [].

I have had the same thought. I'm guessing, given how long lisp has been around. That the ideas is well research.
