Is is very bad form to use local mutable state to solve problems like :

https://www.4clojure.com/problem/114

i.e. 

(fn [n f xs] (let [c (atom 0)] (take-while #(if (f %) (> n (swap! c inc)) 
true) xs)))

If so, what is the strongest reason to reject this kind of code? Since its 
a local atom it ought to be thread-safe right?

Thanks

Andy
