Dear lord... May I please echo the imploration that folks take the editor flame war else where. And while I'm at it, Vim FTW...
On the note of DATA SCIENCE... I agree that Clojure has some catching up to do, both in tooling and awareness/perception. But it also has some major strengths in this area. Companies like the Climate Corp and Prismatic are certainly using Clojure for data analysis and ML to good effect, and I think they might have a lot to say about it's strengths. As for Incanter, I would definitely recommend upgrading, primarily because 2.0 (I believe) will be using core.matrix for it's matrix arithmetic and datasets. This certainly is a major refactor, but one that brings it in better pairing with what's going on in the rest of the Clojure community. I think part of why Incanter hasn't seen much pumping or visible change lately is because folks have been scrambling to get this new release ready, which I commend.
