To answer your question, yes it does look pretty much the same in the Lisp version, less so in the string version. Also I didn’t complain; I expressed the opinion that I don’t agree that homoiconicity increases the appeal of a programming language, because the drawbacks outweigh the possible benefits for me. I spent some time programming in Lisp and am familiar with how homoiconicity works there. The point is that these things are subjective, and there will never be a programming language that everyone likes the best.
