Should have phrase that differently. This is a case of "worse is better". I know Clojure well and, IMO, it's the best language in the world for writing application/business logic. Many times, when programming in JS/Python, those just feel stupid to me. But that doesn't stop many programmers from writing impressive stuff and being super productive in JS/Python/Ruby, why? because they are great developers and can apply their knowledge to most languages. Having said that, and going back to the original point, Clojure struggles and will continue to struggle because it doesn't have any strong hold in any domain, in contrast to JS/Python/Ruby. Each of these have big ecosystems of libraries, documentation, big market share in various domains and big job markets. So yeah, worse its better.
