You are simply trolling. People working with Lisp today are not doing tinkering in a retrocomputing context in order to recreate past experiences --- though there will always be a few of those hobbyists too, to be sure.

It is not comparable to Amiga because you can deliver a solution in Lisp on the users' current platform, and they don't even know or care what you used. You can't put an Amiga solution into production such that the users don't know you're deploying Amigas (unless it's some emulated Amiga VM hidden under a hood or something and not actual hardware).
