The Closure library is useful in the various environments - it supplies utilities and works around quirks. The Closure Compiler is not that useful. Dead code elimination in these environment don't matter. Code size similarly a non-issue. Closure's performance optimizations in a modern high performance JS engine are negligible - our own ClojureScript specific optimizations are far more relevant.
