That is true for guest languages designed to overcome specific issues in a given language (think CoffeeScript vs. JavaScript in 2012 and then in 2019). But I don't think it really applies to Java vs. Clojure, which both pretty much force a specific (different) programming paradigms and have completely different design.

True but you need to access the libraries in Java. That is a little bit hard in some cases.

I find that I tend to do very little interop nowadays, and it predominantly happens at the edges with things like database drivers, and so on.
