The author first says that CL people usually avoid dependency hell:
>When programming applications in Common Lisp people will often depend on a small(ish) number of stable libraries, and library writers often try to minimize dependencies by utilizing as much of the core language as possible.
But then try to expound on CL's extensibility using libraries:
> No one has been clamoring for a new version of the specification that adds features because Common Lisp's extensibility allows users to add new features to the language as plain old libraries
Very contradictory, and these two paragraphs are in two adjacent sections.
