Looking at the list of requirements: 0. Only 1-2 years of dev effort to implement. 1. Predictable, explainable performance. 2. A small, embedabble runtime. 3. Support for repl / incremental programming (ie adding one function shouldn't require stopping the process and re-compiling the entire project). 4. Support for debugging and profiling. Lisp satisfies 1, 3 and 4 I’m pretty sure, and maybe 2 depending on your definition of small. Idk about 1 though.
