Re:Readable Lisp S-expressions Project (2013) by logicprog on Sunday July 07, 2019 @05:45PM (#20378101)
That's actually a very good point. From my anecdotal experience, I actually vastly prefer Lisp like syntax to basically any other syntax because it's so regular and clearly delimited, so I can grab whole expressions and move them around and transform them really easily. It also makes it easier to navigate code, and in my opinion easier to read since I don't have to remember "syntax", just the behavior of functions and macros.

Weirdly enough, even if a language isn't "lispy" I would still consider a expressions a point in it's favor.
