These are just his opinions. Many people really enjoy CLOS, and closer-mop provides better compatibility across implementations. Hygienic macros can be cool (like Racket's) but ultimately I'd consider them a preference. defmacro and gensym are more than fine. CL's type system is quite flexible, and there's stuff like defstar for better function signatures and quid-pro-quo for contract programming (which can actually solve the heading numbering problem). Multimethods are awesome. If you want an ML/Hindley-Milner type system then you should probably be using a different language anyway.
