The great point made in the README is that we can't generate feature expressions. With feature macros we can have macros that generate cross-platform code. That's big in my mind.
That hasn't been a problem with reader macros in the past since you don't need to generate `#(...)` if you have `(fn [] ...)`.

The goal is to generate platform-specialized code. You never have to generate code that generates platform-specialized code!
