Which part do you disagree with? Are you commonly blocked by Clojure errors where you have to stop and spend a material amount of time deciphering them?

Nowhere have I said that if you see an error message you don't know how to program.

I face errors every day, but I don't face errors that are so cryptic that they block my productivity. We agree errors are useful even if we disagree that Clojure's errors are bad.
