Clojure is a functional language, so it meshes well with the rest of the syntax, but in javascript's case it's just syntax bloat. It's going to be really jarring in the middle of regular imperative code, and it's not going to be too far removed from

  cout << "foo";

Please no.

Javascript's beauty lies in its versatile simplicity. Can we just leave these sorts of things to systems programming languages like C++? I came to javascript because of its lack of cruft, but if libraries start adopting this then I'll be forced to put it in my code as well. If that happens then I'll probably leave for nim or clojure, though that's not preferable.
