It can't be „simply“ a function, because then it has no access to the local
environment.
(let [x 99]
(<< "~x bottles of beer"))
This does not work if << is a function. You could imagine a function taking a
map with bindings.
(<< "~x bottles of beer" {:x 99})
But then: why not use format in the first place?
Sincerely
