You are probably correct. There were snide remarks made about Lisp in particular however, like claiming it is not "used in industry" and is thus "nonstandard". Similar remarks could have been made against any language the guy DIDN'T know. Regardless of the reasoning there are people like this who end up stamping Lisp (and other non-dominant solutions) out.
