Strange behaviour of function vars in the case macro

unexpected-token.clj

(defn foo [] (print "foo!"))

(defn bar [] (print "bar!"))

(defn print-foo [fb]
  (apply (case fb
            :foo #'foo
            :bar #'bar) []))

; Will throw this error when defined:
; SyntaxError: Unexpected token return

; You can resolve it by removing the #' from foo and bar.
; This also works:

(defn print-foo [fb]
  (let [foo-map {:foo #'foo :bar #'bar}]
    (apply (get foo-map fb) [])))
