What drew you to Racket?
In my case the "because" was the lack of multi-methods. And in looking into that a little bit and finding generics and a package to extend them that was unmaintained, and finding a long discussion about multi-methods for porting the code for Functional Differential Geometry that was active for a bit and then dropped, and then looking again at some of the libraries that drew me in (like DrBayes) that was no longer maintained, I concluded that as an academic language there are a lot of elegant interesting packages that are one and done projects. The student graduates. The package rots.
