Surely that's only a problem if you choose names for your route parameters that conflict with your form parameters? > I think it’s mostly the effect of trying to use all of the pieces together > that’s causing me some pain.

The code sample demonstrates using normal Clojure destructuring with Compojure's more specialised kind. I wasn't merging anything, I was just pulling out the form parameters and a parameter named "id".
