You raise reasonable questions.  The thought that occurs to me is that
people using CLOS must face similar issues, and I don't hear of them
as being great hold ups.  I know CL a bit, but I've never really used
CLOS in anger -- anyone else?

Some of the issues might be less because of CL not being a Lisp1 and
modularization working differently, I guess.

Cheers,
M.
