I find that having both `:use` and `:require` in my `ns` declarations can, with a little judicious formatting, communicate something about which packages are core and which are peripheral. Having to obfuscate that distinction with a `:refer :all` tacked - in a visually obscure way - onto `:require` forms would make me sad. Not wildly sad, but wistfully sad that people would prefer a breaking change to simply avoiding something they don't want to use.
