No, I don't take (much) issue with your example's readability, I just thought you were offering a typical snippet for the easy path for "I need to perform a GET".
Of course, more involved interactions require an API with more knobs. Clojure has a number of options, including touching the JDK's HTTP client API, or using a wrapper around something more grounded like clj-http[1] / Apache HTTPComponents.
