Hmm. Not to me. I never use it. I _may_ start using it now that you have explained it to me, for which I am grateful. However, this is a matter of taste. For me it is in fact a valid argument against Common Lisp.

And whether having to learn zillions of redundant (in a formal sense) idioms as well as huge libraries of editing functions just to read other people's code will repel potential new developers.
