That's clever insight. If it was lisp from the beginning, maybe would be more straightforward. It's as simple as code can get, according to Uncle Bob, while still being expressive. It's no wonder Emacs still reigns supreme. Well, I am happy with Niri's kdl approach for the time being.
Lisp/scheme is probably a rare case where it sort of works either way and easy to switch without any extra work, since data and settings already look like code. At some point I had used s-expression as config (before json was widespread, I am that old) but that never had a full on evaluator to actually execute code.
