Just because you don't see how something can be true, that doesn't mean it isn't true.
This is also a non-answer and I don't mean to be flippant but if you have any further justification I'd love to read it. It is the core of the argument you're handwaving away.

I know little about Julia. I do know that advocates for Lisp also make similar claims, so I don't see it as that exceptional.
Not surprisingly, Julia draws on Lisp's macro abilities to achieve similar goals. Julia is also influenced by Dylan, another ALGOL-like Lisp variant.
If Julia does do what you say you don't believe it can, how would you learn that you were wrong?
