The argument put forward here (and elsewhere) seems to be that

we want Clojure to gain the advantages of being on the bootstrap classloader in Java 9 while still targeting Java 7

That's pretty unconvincing to me. If you're shipping jars that are intentionally compiled against old JREs then you might not get the benefits of new JVM features. Them's the breaks.
