What I like best is that a single tool (lein or boot) drives the entire development pipeline and you get to choose between data-driven or code-driven approaches respectively.
Usually there's one place for dependencies, one for builds, one for configuration; each using their own tools and/or languages. That list grows quickly as well. A single tool to drive it all is bliss.
I recently had to take over a few Ruby projects and the tooling is so spread over its hell; bundle, gem, rake and others.
