What is the quintessential lisp experience? (alien.top)

Hello, what is the quintessential lisp experience?

Is it the interactivity that is enabled by Common Lisp? So if this is the case could you say a bit about how SLIME + Common Lisp work together to experience the beauty of lisp experience?

Moreover if macros are the killer feature of lisp because you can extend the language and make dsls wouldn’t racket offer a quintessential lisp experience?

It's debating why lisp is better than other languages. Or feeling empty when using a non-lisp language and wishing to be able to use Common Lisp instead.
