The main problem I find with Lisp syntax is that everything looks the same: a giant soup of parentheses. You have to read Lisp closely to know the context. A list of statements (function calls) visually looks different than a list of parameters in C-style languages, for example. Similarly, you see square brackets and immediate know it's a subscript/index to an array-like structure. And parenthesis (usually) mean something different than curly braces. Visual Cues Help! Maybe your eyes are different, but most the programming world has agreed with me over the years and voted C-style over Lisp. I have even proposed a syntax style called "Moth" that attempts to meld the best of C-style, Lisp, and XML in terms of composability and roll-your-own control & block structures. I welcome better takes on the goal.
