Doesn't this nice article perhaps show a beginning of the path how to use Picolisp as the basis for more use-case-oriented dialects/variations that could be used more intuitively by users?
Might this be a way to attract more users to use picolisp by such 'vehicles', which they can happily drive until they discover and take the time to explore and internalize the completeness and beauty of the underlying core language? For many design decisions of picolisp there are well-founded articles, but perhaps fewer people would be deterred if there were offered ways to circumvent these 'restrictions' (as those users might rate initially)? I like the article very much and how it explains the topic, even I did not take the time to go deeper into it. Thanks for sharing it!
