It's true that I wouldn't apply it to prose, but that doesn't mean it's not useful for code, where you often want to look at lots of it and get a gist of what it's doing. Also I often do think of a programming language as a user interface, even if it's not actually made of buttons and icons.

I'm not claiming this is the main problem with Lisp; only that it's one of them.
