This is a refreshingly specific post. Many articles of this kind ham-fistedly define various philosophical criteria throughout the post and make sketchy judgements within these. Here however there is just "here's the main comparative languages, here's the difference, here's where there may be issues".
NB. I'm very much in favour of a principled (qua philosophical) approach to language comparison (etc.) but its rarely done well.

It's always great to see post from real Lisper instead of yet another Lisp philosopher.
