My point was that if even CIDER, which is a favorite method, has
bit-rotted to the point of not working, makes it a bit questionable to
try to support the other two methods.

For instance, I could not get SLIME to work with org when I tried a
year ago, so I don't know if it's working now.

And CIDER replaces nREPL, so nREPL should be dropped at some point.
On the other hand, since nREPL isn't being edited now it's unlikely to
produce the same problem as CIDER did (the function used by ob-clojure
was removed from CIDER).
