I had some trouble fitting strings into such a language because of using JSON strings for both identifiers and LISP strings. Then again, even being stuck with just numbers, this would be completely sufficient to bootstrap a parser to be able to use nicer syntax.
Yeah, I agree that part is kind of a bummer. It's really just a compromise to get up and running quickly. And it's not necessarily the best approach for everyone.
