Is Lisp a lie?

I was reading this article, when I had a revelation.

One assumed it must have been divine intervention, since “there seems to be no other reason for switching to an inferior language.” Another figured something else must be going on: “Could this be…a lie? To throw off competition? It’s not as though Paul Graham hasn’t hinted at this tactic in his essays…” Another chimed in: “I decided it was a prank.” Another suggested the authors simply wanted more “cut corners, hacks, and faked artisanship.”

Pay close attention to this part:

“Could this be…a lie? To throw off competition? It’s not as though Paul Graham hasn’t hinted at this tactic in his essays…”

What if all this stuff about Lisp being more productive is, itself, the big lie?

The debug info in Uncharted 4's screenshots look quite a lot like '*LISP-SYMBOLS*. Still in use, still people avoid the AI winter stigma by keeping it secret.

Uncharted was the game that started the Igor Net meme, isn't it?

>>36
It's real funny.

They use Lisp for animation and scripting. Although I heard that was limited to compile time.

>>45
GOAL is not a Lisp

Lie awake in bed at night
And think about your life
Do you want to be different?
Try to let go of the truth
The battles of your youth
'Cause this is just a game

It's a beautiful lie
It's the perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful it makes me

It's time to forget about the past
To wash away what happened last
Hide behind an empty face
Don't ask too much, just say
'Cause this is just a game
