Racket is cool, has nice features, simpler than Common Lisp and comes with an editor which is nice. I'm always somewhat jealous and want to use it.

But it's really hard to give up the raw power of Common Lisp and ability to write low-level code. Even if the language and tooling is all more complicated.

I tend to move back and forth between Common Lisp and Racket - so many good things from both communities and tech.
