Oh please. Besides the fact, that CL has a ton of other features which set it apart any of mentioned langs, none of their REPLs are comparable in power. We have interactive debuggers built in and a language designed for it.

Take this simple example:

  > (+ 1 "foo")
  
  The value "foo" is not of the expected type NUMBER.
     [Condition of type TYPE-ERROR]
  
  Restarts:
   0: [USE-VALUE] Use a new value of type NUMBER instead of "foo".
   ...

   > 0<RET>41<RET>

   => 42
