you're wrong - Spacemacs offers very nice tools for structural editing out of the box and including clever-parens layer. You can also use Parinfer or Lispy. You can customize things to your liking using combination of Paredit and Smartparens.

Only tried evil (which I think is the Spacemacs default?) with paredit and while paredit is a truly stellar, evil mode does not play well with it. Perhaps the other paren tools you've mentioned work better with evil? With paredit, evil editing can delete only part of a paren leaving unmatched problems.
