@amszmidt what if the differences include being an inconsiderate creep to, say, women? Or is being nasty to others just an expression of opinion? Or does it not matter if the people bothered are not important enough?
@ekaitz_zarraga@amszmidt Common Lisp was also not trying to design a language from scratch, they were trying to broker a compromise between multiple implementors and users with existing code, essentially forced by the Dept. of Defense. They indeed knew what they were doing but "what they were doing" was not designing an ideal Lisp.
