Research direction

Start in the Quick Start section containing the (ffirst [1]) example and compare its stated output with the current ClojureScript REPL output shown in the issue. Update the example's description so it accurately reflects the stack trace behavior, then review the rendered Quick Start page.

In Quick Start:

But with recent changes stack traces are no longer printed by default:

ClojureScript 1.10.516
cljs.user=> (ffirst [1])
Execution error (Error) at (<cljs repl>:1).
