Refactoring Clojure code is generally seen as a positive task due to its inherent characteristics such as immutability and the prevalence of static top-level functions. These features facilitate easy testing and refactoring compared to traditional object-oriented programming languages like Java, which can often lead to tangled code structures. However, the presentation of code can dramatically affect readability. For instance, one comment drew attention to the poor choice of syntax highlighting in shared code snippets, which can detract from the overall clarity, making it difficult to decipher the actual code. As such, while Clojure itself is designed for better refactoring practices, the way code is displayed can significantly impact user experience.
