Hi, I think destructure should not produce nthnext, because it realize an element of sequence more than needed.
For example: (defn inc-seq [i] (iterate #(let [x (inc %)] (println "realize:" x) x) i)) ;=> #'user/inc-seq (take 1 (inc-seq 0)) ;=> (0) (take 1 (let [[x & xs] (inc-seq 0)] (cons x xs))) ; realize: 1 ;=> (0) (macroexpand '(let [[x & xs] (inc-seq 0)] (cons x xs))) ;=> (let* [vec__2630 (inc-seq 0) x (clojure.core/nth vec__2630 0 nil) xs (clojure.core/nthnext vec__2630 1)] (cons x xs)) Although nthrest isn't in clojure, why not to use nthrest instead of nthnext in destructure?
