This is a valid use case and it's the reason tools like Blitz [0] exist in the first place.
Plumbing UI, Forms, API and db is pretty much the same for a lot of MVPs and anything that can get you to a faster prototype is welcome. The difference between what the author shows and Blitz is that the latter is similar to Rails in the sense that it scales to a proper 'Production App' rather than a quick prototype.

Precursor.app for a while was a great example. Now I would look at Roam Research for what a Clojure powered startup can do.

elm-format naturally creates more lines than formatted clj code.
Also, you have extra code for types, but also the convenience of a great type system. If you were to add clojure.spec to RWA it would probably be just as verbose.

This is a clever comment and I'm surprised to see no further discussion. In the West, everyone needs to be the hero of their own story. Everyone needs to be an Achilles or a King Arthur, therefore everyone needs a dragon to fight. The bigger the enemy, the more morally entitled your actions feel.
