Greeting, and thanks so much for your report!
It is very easy in Debian for a user to build atop their own favorite
lisp. Supporting multiple lisps across all our platforms is unwieldy
and maintenance nightmare. The existing setup has been chosen as a good
balance between portability and performance.
Take care,
