Sorry I don't understand what that means?
A Lisp list is a persistent data structure.
A Lisp list is a persistent data structure.
First, conses are mutable so lists are persistent as long as they are used in a persistent way -- it has to be enforced through the codebase (and deps).
Second, lists big-O access/update costs are not as interesting as persistent maps and vectors.

And I said they do. You've said Clojure persistent data structure offer more. Ok, but I just said they existed in Lisp and they do.
