What you're looking at though in lisp is an unambiguous syntax tree.
It's what helps you find your way around in the forest, especially with editor support that can automagically apply operations to discrete chunks of your code.
That can include doing things like re-defining a function or value on the fly, which is one of the lovely things you can do in many lisps.

Sure, but like I said to lispm, I know enough Lisp to understand both of these points. Respectfully, neither addresses my point about syntax.
