Too Long; Didn't Read
There is a steady stream of newcomers to Clojure either learning on the job or wanting to learn because it is awesome. Unfortunately, the process of learning doesn’t seem to have improved too much. New entrants need better docs (read easier and more complete) with more examples and more showcases of how things scale with Clojure. There is no denying that the benefits of Clojure are definitely worth the price. But that’s not true for everyone, so there are many opportunities to explore. Plenty of barriers to be broken down, bridges that can be built.
