I've been in the computer programming game for about thirty-five years, FWIW, and my considered opinion is that we should have all just used Lisp. Programming languages are video games for smarties. There is no good reason to use anything other than Lisp. (I'm not even a Lisp programmer. I wrote a Scheme program last month and that's about it. I love Python! But it never should have existed.) (The interesting question is, did these later non-Lisp PLs have to exist to provide the information that shows that they shouldn't?)
