I use shell scripts left and right for all kinds of things in my regular dev workflow. Running tests with various configurations. Complex tmux layouts. Syncing non-got data. I could go on and on. Common Lisp would be an incredible asset for this, as Babashka already is in the Clojure world. The REPL alone makes writing/maintaining these scripts very efficient. Why do you feel like Python must be the choice for everyone?
