I&#x27;m not sure that matters either.<p>Let&#x27;s say you&#x27;re talking about Java. A &quot;bad&quot; team will have mountains of code. A &quot;good&quot; team will apply Greenspun&#x27;s Tenth Rule and use a lisp to compress down the mountain to the extent that &quot;lisp&quot; can compress it over Java.<p>You may protest that the lisp has angle brackets and that it&#x27;s inferior to say Clojure, but the machine does not care.
