Mark your post as "Show HN". There's no way I will comment on your side project after I was tricked into reading about it.

Apologies if you felt tricked into reading it.

I only spoke about the project as context for the question in the title, but I see how I could have been clearer, and how I didn't necessarily need to include the title.

If you're experienced in Lisp, I'm still curious about the question: is adding a lisp to a sheet more powerful than adding, say JS, and if so, how?

No, it won't be more powerful
