I think much more than language syntax and features, it was impressive until ~5-10 years ago just how advanced IDEs for Smalltalk and Lisps were compared to any other language. There has been a massive catch up in recent years, though I think many dynamic languages are still behind on their IDE support compared to these ancient technologies.
