Java has arrays, lists, maps and sets, so does Ruby and Erlang.
If they were redundancies in these structures, can't see why these three still
maintain this distinction. It's probably a safe bet to say that we need to
convey these
nuances in edn somehow.
My question was meant as a preamble to the joke about asking Mrs Irma and
her crystal ball :)
As for the notation, I am happy that it is so terse, I can maintain my
daily code line throughput even as I slowly but surely decay behind my
keyboard...
