This is exactly the response that is a bad response.
All the OP needed is an explanation of the syntax of a Compojure macro. If someone is asking about the syntax of a specific macro, then "you don't understand macros" is not the correct response.
And that sort of thing doesn't work anyway for 90% of people.
That's what I was saying--macros don't work for 90% of people, because 90% of people aren't willing to read the libraries they use. (I'm not a Clojure user, if you're curious.)
