I get the code is data thing, but I don't really find it that much useful. And there is a good reason most languages don't allow it - other people :)

The unless example is a good one. So while you can trivially implement 'unless' in lisp, most probably in a large code base, you'll en up with 'unless', 'if-not' and depending on how creative others are probably also 'negat-if'.
