Furthermore, you cannot eliminate all uses of parentheses — fns,
nested calls, let blocks, etc — so what's the point? Python has
parentheses, it just doesn't have {}s… and it has crippled features
(such as one-line lambdas) as a result.
Lisps have minimal syntax, and after a few weeks of using one you'll
probably end up preferring the style to those of other languages.
There are reasons why Lisp ended up with what was originally intended
to be an intermediate syntax.
