Have you tried? LLMs are really good at elisp, which is strange because elisp code is almost always GPL.

There's an option beyond lisp. Forth has even less syntax.

In my experience, they find counting parenthesis as difficult as counting the r's in strawberry if it was spelled srtrawrrrbrrerryrrrr.
