As someone who also first got introduced to Lisp through SICP and Scheme, I don't really care about Lisp-1 versus Lisp-2, but I don't much fancy minimalism. I switched to CL for the type declarations and just got used to funcall and number sign+apostrophe; and minimalism means the things a larger language would provide out of the box (say, hash tables) you either need to write yourself or find a library for. Hence why various Schemes (Guile, Gauche, Chicken) have a ton of libraries beyond the standard.

In fact, I'd say CL is too minimalist, hence CLDR (a bit like SRFIs) and various libraries which form a sort of unofficial extended core (Alexandria, Bordeaux threads, CL-PPCRE,...)
