I loved this article, this is exactly what programmers in my community complain most about with regard to lisp. The greatest strengths for me are the scoping and how lisp enables interactive development. For one, I don't even see parens anymore when writing code. They've become automatic where I'm able to parse structure at least better than I have in the past. With a REPL, (I specifically use Clojure), development has become fun again. A typical debugging process is attaching to my actual program, and calling functions seeing what happens. I love the flow of defining functions in my code, `def`-ing some test data, and calling those functions. I'll use `cider-inspect` to see if the data structure looks correct and iterate. Everyone should at least try a lisp. Iterative, interactive development is so fun and powerful.
