I believe there is a "catch" to using CleanSlate: You have to remember to load it BEFORE loading the package(s) that you now want to, in effect, unload. Unfortunately, one only realizes too late that you need to unload a package, so you didn't anticipate that need and didn't already load CleanSlate. The function CleanSlate[] does, though, allow some fine control over what gets unloaded: optionally you can specify the contexts you want to unload. Or, using CleanSlateExcept, you can unload everything except what's in the contexts you specify.
