The name is not really used and gets in the way

I have noticed that the utility of having a name is not really high and moreover having to pass a :name key every time can be tricky - for instance when generating processors dynamically:

(defn journey-processor-tap
  [index command]
  (let [uuid (:uuid command)]
    [{:processor #(hash-map :response (get-in % [:journeys index])
                            :command command)
      :path [:journeys index]
      :name (str "hack-" uuid)}   ;; this should be improved))

If we passed the symbol of the function instead of the function itself we could auto generate the name for instance.

Agree, the name should be optional. But I think it shouldn't be removed, as it can still can be used by helper function in order to replace impure steps with mocks when testing
