Is CLOS doing less than Python?
I'm thinking CLOS has more dynamism than Python - they're both dynamically typed, they're both doing a lookup then dispatch, but then CLOS adds dynamism on top of that, it's also looking in the metadata thingy (i'm not a lisp developer, do they call it the hash? I'm meaning the key value store on every "atom" - i'm so out of my depth here, is atom the right word?) plus if i remember right the way CLOS works you use multiple dispatch not just single dispatch like python.
