I submit R is easily the most misunderstood language among programmers.

And it's not just under the hood where it's very lisp like. Heck you can write it with an almost lisp notation if you really wanted to, `+`(1, 2), and the syntax is incredibly pliable. I'm a big fan of lisp and I'd argue it's one dialect of lisp I actually get to use.
