Lisps are much more loaded with implicitness around all sorts of brackets, which makes them non-friendly for semi-programmers. This is less important in our usual industry that is motivated to hide as much as possible behind a paywall, but I’m a strong follower of “anyone wielding a keyboard should be able to program” ideology. That said, historically lisps are the most featureful runtime-wise. It’s a real shame we hide behind our complexity but collectively chicken out before really powerful concepts lisps introduced.
