laurentpetit said: Richn, by "will fail on non-numbers", do you mean "should throw an exception" (and thus the patch must change the code), or just as it works today :

(== :a :a)
false

?

richhickey said: I don't want to recommend, in = doc, that people should prefer == for any case. People should always prefer =. If there is a perf, difference we can make that go away. Then the only difference with == is that it will fail on non-numbers, and that should be the only reason to choose it.
