> Some languages that have CONS cells:

Erlang and Prolog also use cons cells... Prolog is also homoiconic. I don't think I ever heard anyone calling Prolog a Lisp though.

Also, Clojure has cons cells. '(3 . 4) is a valid expression in Clojure.

Basically, this is an arbitrary, and rather unhelpful, classification. I don't find it interesting, but to each their own, I guess.
