I love lisp in general as well, but I think lisps will always tend toward an unmaintainable mess unless the people working with it are very disciplined. With the REPL based workflow and macros, lisp encourages a very 'hack on it until it works' development workflow. Which feels awesome but doesn't lend itself to building maintainable solutions.
