I see a lot of other Clojure users wade into discussions like these and reveal an unexamined view of the technology they use and the way that other communities are trying to solve these same problems. It's really discouraging to see people put Clojure(Script) and associated libs on a pedestal, because it removes any nuance from the discussion and makes people think that the Clojure community are a bunch of holier-than-thou zealots.

FWIW, I was (am still) super excited about Hooks and have posted a lot of things critiquing ClojureScript React wrappers in the past, but I recognize now that they are making tradeoffs that ultimately are what the authors think are in the best interest of their user base. It would really be great if you (and everyone else) would enter these discussions with the same assumption.
