Is there a VS Code color theme that actually understands Clojure?

One that understands the difference between symbols and keywords, but also the difference between functions and macros

And is dark

Atom One Dark fits the bill

Well not quite. It isn't aware of a lot of macros

i just raised an issue against calva/vscode (https://github.com/PEZ/clojure4vscode/issues/29) following conversation in #vscode I've attempted to look in to an underlying fix but am somewhat stuck.. short version is vscode prints literal ansi color symbol for the evaluation response value. i can't figure out whether the ansi color is being added by cider-nrepl or leiningen. so far, i've looked through code for cider-nrepl (& puget, which it uses to pretty print) but couldn't pinpoint the code responsible. did the same for leiningen code.
