That is a good point. To be able to utilize Lisp well you need to be able to structure your application, but you would need already a lot of experience and exposure to well structured applications. Whereas if you are a Java developer you get structure from people who designed Spring and now this is how you fill in controller, this is how you make service method, this is how you make your database layer... all these decisions were already made for you and you just need to follow to get a passable result. Freedom is a double-edged sword. If you don't know how to use it it may very well be worse than not having it in the first place.
