It makes it a hybrid functional / object oriented language like common lisp, man.
Lisps in general are not functional languages, they're verb-oriented (or classically, “procedure oriented”). The functional stuff is sort of a legacy moniker that meant something very different when Sussman & Steele wrote "Lambda the Ultimate Goto".
