Although he didn't reiterate it in the STM section, up front he was pretty explicit about what he meant by "production" software, really a specific kind of production software. So the recommendations might not apply if you write a different kind. To make my biases explicit, I mostly write webapps and data analysis on servers in the cloud. If you use Clojure in significantly different applications, these recommendations might not apply to you.
