I generally never used macros when I wrote C because the C macro language is lacking, there are a lot of pitfalls and saving function call overhead is usually not that important.
I think I'll try to get a new understanding of Lisp macros by trying to come up with a language feature in C# or Dart that I really want but can't implement without a lot of non-intuitive difficulty, but could easily in a Lisp style macro that the compiler could use to build in a new feature at compile time.
