True, lack of conciseness may not be the first thing that comes to mind 
when speaking about Lisps :-)  

What I should have said is that I think equivalent Python code has fewer 
'noise' symbols than S-expressions. Of course, that depends greatly on how 
the programs are structured.

And, that brings us back to readability. Since this subject keeps popping 
up, over years and even decades, maybe there's something here that the Lisp 
experts don't quite understand? Maybe it has something to do with programs 
needing to be quickly understood, even by non-experts?
