The threading macro idea is meant to just make it easier for humans to read, so if it's not easier for you, no sense bothering with it. In such, it's not a true prefix vs infix tool, just a tool possible in languages with macros. As to the are increasing, yes, I suppose the list itself would be a more natural subject. This is why I love macros, not really infix or prefix specifically, because a macro makes it trivial to just have this: (. [1 2 3 4].isOrdered) turn into this: (isOrdered [1 2 3 4]) That way both the human and the compiler get their preferred view.
