Yet, Python, JS, Ruby, etc, are still missing the JIT/AOT toolchains in the box like Lisp languages, even with V8, you need a debug build for something as basic as (disassemble ....), and then there are the IDE tooling, live coding experience, that for having something remotely close, means getting one of the JetBrains IDE, and still not the full stack experience like Lisp.

One would have expected that after all these years, dynamic languages would have learned a bit more from Lisp than only the type system, and having a GC.
