All types don't need names exactly like the Clojure example shows. There is no "type" for the argument, likely it's a map under the hood. And maps with keywords are used broadly across Clojure projects as a method of pass groups of data and no, you don't have to name that arbitrary collection of data. Rich Hickey has an amazing presentation on the silliness of a commonly used Java Web Request library where the vast majority of object types required could have just been little nested maps instead of creating a ton of bespoke like types that make it difficult to assemble and manipulate all the bits. The interface he roasts could be completely discarded an nearly no benefits lost in terms of readability or usability. Hickey is also famous for saying he would rather a few data structures and a 100 little algorithms instead of 10 data structures and 10 algorithms per data structure.
