I somehow fail to see how it does something useful for recursive functions.

Clojure in general prefers the loop/recur construct over real recursion. You still can't see each iteration of the loop, though; perhaps that's what you meant by useful.

I just tried some factorial code... and it just shows the last recursion, but it is still nice that it evaluates on the spot
