merits of Lisp vs Python

[Juan R.]

Using LISP-like syntax for everything would be so stupid as using
quantum mechanics for billiards.

Claiming that LISP parens are Stupid, Superfluous, or Silly just
because you do not need them in your limited field of discourse, would
be so stupid as those people thinking that just because they use
classical mechanics at the macro scale and works for them, then
classical mechanics would also work at the atomic scale [*].

[*] Even today, after 100 years some people think that quantum
mechanics is Stupid, Superfluous, or Silly and some classical
formulation will replace.
