"you might have to re-write libraries that are available to you in more mainstream languages or use inferior or incomplete alternatives."
Use (something like) Clojure (or a dot net equivalent)and you can have the best of both - a lisp and lots of libraries. The (minor) price is some grunginess at the interface of the lisp and the libraries, but this is paid only once.
