Packages in Lisp are not just namespaces. They are objects (data) with which one can compute with and manipulate. Of course, their primary purpose is to provide a home for symbols, and to provide the notion of internal/exported symbols. All assembly languages provide access to facilities not available to the higher level languages implemented upon them.
