My point being is: people often complain about readability of Clojure and Lisps in general without even giving it a heartfelt attempt. They complain about parentheses (which becomes a non-issue within literally hours after learning structured editing idioms). It's a matter of familiarity.

Some prefer semicolons and other "visual garbage" in their code, I like minimalism and structure.

No other language can retain readability on different screens like Clojure can. Even reading it in a narrow screen of a mobile phone - it would wrap, but still retain its readability. Good luck trying that with literally any other (non-lispy) language.
