Is it weird/bad that I like this form instead?
(def uuid #(str (java.util.UUID/randomUUID)))

@kenfehling It's not particularly weird or bad, but one small downside is that the function will lack the :arglists metadata the way you've written it (try running (:arglists (meta #'uuid))), which some development tooling might rely on to show you how to call the function.
