But Lisp already had recursion, right? It was just Algol and the international standard that was held up.
Similar to the situation with things like CoffeeScript vs. ES6 etc.
What I think we need is a standard so flexible and meta that systems can evolve without waiting for society or standards to catch up. Which we have in Turing-complete languages.
But we should standardize somehow on a very meta level.
