What are the pros and cons of a Lisp in which (AREF x 3) and (GETHASH
'c y), for example, becomes (x 3) and (y 'c), respectively? The
latter are more concise; is there a down side?
We've heard some cons, but on the pro side, functions and the data
structures you mention alike are mappings. It'd be nice to abstract
away whether that mapping is calculated by a function or stored in an
object.
