Lisp is the goal, C is the path
That's like saying Lisp is insufficiently homoiconic because the processor it runs on was designed using VHDL instead of s-expressions.I guess you missed all the threads which devolved into Lisp machines and their hardware superiority over C Processing Units. People actually argued the decline of Lisp is because of PC and x86 being dictated by C features, which is suboptimal for something thats suppose to be run on a lisp machine(e.g. without the "nasty" tag bits)
