Undoubtedly many people think like this, but I've never been able to understand it. I'm forced to use other languages and rarely have the time to do something in Lisp for fun, but when I do, it is the most readable and least eye-straining language that I know. Python is far more eye-straining in its monotony. I understand other arguments: I'd like batteries included outside Lispworks/Allegro, larger repositories of examples that reflect best practices, perhaps even an improved Common Lisp. But readability? I just don't get it.
