Bah! Lisp comes, out of the box, with far too many features! No no no.
If you want the + operator to add two numbers, you have to say so!
(Obviously there'll be extensive use of #include or equivalent.)

It started out as a serious idea - a really clean language that would,
like Lua or Python, be nicely embeddable in larger programs - and
specifically, I wanted an expression evaluator that could have
d-notation added to it. But the realisation that such a language
consisted of a foot, a machine gun, and a belt of ammunition kinda led
to it being dropped.
