Writing code by hand isn't too bad, especially with a good language like LISP. I don't think it requires too much extra effort, just more attention and care as to not make syntax mistakes. With near-instant compile times and auto-linting, we sort of lose the ability to auto-vet code before inputting it.

I think it is a bit deep than that. I love LISP to death but I would never trade a ML language for LISP for writing code that goes into production.
Many people put Lisp into production, even in very demanding environments, just fine...
I never doubted that.
