From your perspective, what are Clojure's prospects for contemporary and future alignment with the JVM?
After all, Rich Hickey built the core in 2006-07. Looking at his graph[0] of code introduction and retention in his HOPL-IV paper[1] might imply that either he's that good at the core abstractions or possibly the language could suffer a similar set of limitations as commented about Kotlin above.
