People did do it (JsonLogic by your own admission) and similar things (every single Lisp based language every) so if your only argument is "people didn't do it before, therefore it cannot be a good idea" it doesn't work.

No I don't think there is a good reason. You're completely missing that programming language syntax is designed for humans. You can still serialize all languages to json syntax trees, just like you can do so with lisp notation, Po

When I read books, I enjoy it a lot more when I read a "known great" book. It's easier to just pick up a Dostoyevksy, Kafka, Saramago, or Murakami or whatever. Chances are I'm gonna like it, or it'll be entertaining
