Actually I do prefer Clojure's approach better than traditional Lisp syntax.

Me too. My only problem with Clojure is that it is not available in a native flavor like most Schemes or CLs. Otherwise it is a very good substrate for the evolution of CL. Despite the functional style advertised by Javascript, at least for me Clojure ticks almost all the points of a proper functional language except one, which is fixed by core.typed. SML should take a closer look at what is happening with Clojure for its SMLnext proposals.
