With function calls, yes.

What makes it different is that syntactic constructs are also expressed with the same syntax and there is no special syntax, so control flow constructs use a syntax similar to function calls.

This is particularly exuberant in Arc where what in many languages would be:

    if        (<cond1>) {
      <then expr1>
    } else if (<cond2>) {
      <then expr2>
    } else if (<cond3>) {
      <then expr3>
    } else {
      <else expr>
    }

Would instead be:

    (if
      <cond1> <then expr1>
      <cond2> <then expr2>
      <cond3> <then expr3>
      <else expr>)

Note the complete lack of syntax beyond a keyword having 7 arguments in order, which many find nonconsecutive to reading, and also error prone as accidentally making a typo can completely change the meaning of the program.

It is thus that most Lisps have somewhat more redundant syntax:

    (cond
      [<cond1> <then expr1>]
      [<cond2> <then expr2>]
      [<cond3> <then expr3>]
      (else    <else expr>))

Personally, I wouldn't mind that a mandatory `->` be required in between the conditions and the expression to further guard against accidental typos. I find that redundancy in syntax guards against accidental mistakes, though I have nothing against the parentheses and in fact favor them.

Pattern matching in rust:

  match x {
      <cond1> => <expr1>,
      <cond2> => <expr2>,
      <cond3> => <expr3>,
      _ => <expr>,
  } 

  let message = match maybe_digit {
      Some(x) if x < 10 => process_digit(x),
      Some(x) => process_other(x),
      None => panic!(),
  };

Seems useful. Python's getting match soon too!

Clojure specifically doesn't have the bracket wrapper around condition-expression pairs but syntax highlighting/ formatting considers it and aligns stuff nicely. I don't think, it is a problem that it basically is a list or function call with arguments. I do think, adding `->` just like that would be a problem because it would be very inconsistent with the syntax of Clojure.
