I will forever think of this talk by Peter Siebel (author of Practical Common Lisp) whenever I hear about multiple dispatch: https://youtu.be/VeAdryYZ7ak?si=wY3RmcRnW96jxQQm

That's a very long video you've linked to :P could you talk about why multiple dispatch reminds you of that talk?

Seibel spends a fair amount of time talking about how powerful and flexible CL's dynamic dispatch mechanism is and how/why it was still a novel feature at the time (~15 years ago).
