 Well, part of the problem is that you can use all of those arguments

 choose the one of the other languages.


 My take on this is he wanted to use Lisp and went looking for a 
 justification.


But he was considering Clojure which is a dialect of Lisp and didn't choose it
for the same reasons as Python and Ruby.
