This fails:

(ns-resolve 'sumtin 'clecs.world/remove-entity)

Exception No namespace: sumtin found  clojure.core/the-ns (core.clj:3830)


But this succeeds:

(ns-resolve 'seesaw.core 'clecs.world/remove-entity)
#'clecs.world/remove-entity


It seems when the 2nd argument is fully qualified, first argument is not
important but it still needs to be a valid namespace.
