It's easy to add new things to Lisp and C when the interface looks mostly like function invocation. It's easier to extend Lisp with things that aren't a lot like function invocation, because C syntax and the C preprocessor don't work together as well as Lisp syntax and Lisp macros. I wouldn't worry much about spouting nonsense when you learn new things unless you're prone to that already.
