Lisp is a very flexible language; I don’t see why people can’t just use LISP instead of other language, since it technically has every feature of every language.

    1. Syntax preferences
    2. Lisp-family languages always use dynamic garbage collection, AFAIK (there are languages with syntax based on s-expressions that don’t use cons cells, etc., but I don’t know if these are generally considered to be Lisps)

    That’s all I can think of
