The Problem with Macros

This is quite a wild ride. My only Lisp experience is Clojure, and I have written some macros[1], but never dove anywhere near this deep into everything that’s going on.

It’s interesting, I’ve spent a lot of recent personal interest time deep diving into code transformation in JS/TS. These concerns about name collision and shadowing are front and center there, but of course tree-walking AST transform is the ~only game in town[2] and it’s had me pining for first class language macros.

2: I have some ideas on this, but nowhere near fully formed enough to elaborate just now; suffice to say they derive a lot from what I do know about macros.
