As for "average programmer", it's less clear what that means. If it means programmers who are not sufficiently interested in using more powerful programming tools then I think it's hard to make the argument that Lisp should be dumbed down for them. As you point out, there are other languages which excel in this area. -- You must Sign in before you can post messages.
