This survey reinforces a positive feedback loop. "Clojure is great because Clojure is great".
For a "state of X" survey it would be nice to see questions like "what are the biggest hurdles, problems, issues". For example, State of JS drills down to language features, syntax, overall happiness, frameworks etc.
E.g. the author of Rum and Datascript re-wrote his ICFPC submission from Clojure to Rust and gained 17x speed increase [1]. This could be something to poll.
