    if all you care about is information / documentation, and maybe validation, then spec or malli are fine. using spec during runtime to simulate a type system is a poor choice in most cases, because you are doing runtime type checking (something akin to dependent types or even esoteric contracts that are hard/impossible to express statically). There are some libs that help bolt a typed facade (using spec) onto the familiar defn / fn, https://github.com/gnl/ghostwheel https://github.com/Provisdom/defn-spec .
