As a person that is doubting for a backend project (web) between Clojure and Common Lisp, what would you recommend and why?

I think for ehat I saw that Clojure is very clean and there is a clear way to do things but I keep finding people saying that Common Lisp interactivity is super good and CLOS amazing.

So my main question would be:

  1. will this interactivity make a difference in my daily workflow? What I see is that clojure is anyway mostly stateless so fancy things like reload on the fly would not be very important...?
What other diffeerence would you say make a big experience difference.

I tried Python with NiceGUI recently and I was impressed byt I want to try a more functional-like and possible hot-patching in production could be also a feature I would make use of from time to time, instead of sapwning full deployments.

Any feedback from experienced practitioners is welcome.
