How explain why Python is easier/nicer than Lisp which has a simpler grammar/syntax?

And yet if Lisp or Java programmers were here they would say their
languages //are// multi-paradigm too.  For example, Lisp has the
Common Lisp Object System (CLOS) and Java has the Vector class and so on.

Maybe Python somehow gives more paradigms //better// syntax support 
whereas in Lisp and Java they are somewhat "bolted on" and not done 
as well?
