You don’t need to lobby for votes, we’ll get these fixed, some are already out there with patches

edn didn't exist

is this a special case in the compiler?

if we made it today, it would be edn

maybe the other weirdness is that it has vars and those don't have edn rep

how does it have vars?

oh, sorry I'm just misremembering b/c that's how it exists in memory

it's quite handy that you can use reader conditionals to distinguish between clojure dialects. I don't know how you would do that with just .edn so maybe it was a happy sequence of design decisions. Else maybe we would get data_reader.cljs.edn or so

many years on, I have lots of design feedback for the creators of data_readers :)
