Yeah I know about how Lisp works - I have a PhD in metaprogramming using interpreters and meta-circular compilers. I just don't agree it's really materially different.

I don't have a PhD in metaprogramming, but I see the difference between a interpreted Lisp code and compiled code during development quite a lot.
