I don't see how the C++ notion of encapsulation is better that Lisp's? In C++: * you can access anything anyway just by using friend declaration, that's something similar to accessing Lisp's class slots by package-private names, not real improvement * you have to recompile everything when private part of class changes... actually a disadvantage
