@contrapunctus@fe.disroot.org compared to EDN which you linked, sx only has lists. no arrays, no maps. in the preprocessor, even literals are encoded as lists + symbols. just two atomic types, no more. datastructures don't belong on that level. [] and {} are styles only.
does conspack have a pythonic mode? examples don't look like it.
an original concern was to reduce editing distances for common tasks without requiring a special editor. e.g. commenting out a block is 1 keypress in gedit or vim.

@contrapunctus@fe.disroot.org i'm totally fine defending individual decisions, if you're up for it.
