I'll try to address: * Perhaps surprising, but Brazil is an interesting market. We have a connected young generation and most industries' current players are bad. * I would argue it's about avoiding reinventing the wheel. Datomic gives you easy scale-out and auditing, and Clojure gives you a flexible, pragmatic functional language with good async/threading primitives running on stablished platforms (JVM and web browsers). I guess going off the beaten path is not necessarily more work if you're taking a shortcut.
