Relatively few of the things in Potemkin are an objective improvement over the Clojure semantics, and even then the process for getting things into core is punishingly slow. The only time I’ve seen fast movement is when I’ve found an actual bug.
And honestly, if enough people were bothered by stuff like partial transparency to transaction retry exceptions [1] to warrant changing core, Potemkin would probably in much wider use.
If anyone has questions about the marginal ideas that make up this library, feel free to ask.
Have you tried getting any of this in core?
