Lisp qualifies as more powerful in ease of use in RARE situations that don't come up in the majority of applications. Pretty much any web related or OS programming is Lisp free. Even in mathematical data processing it is frequently easier to use a C style language.
Sure, you can make a few code examples that are shorter and cleaner in Lisp, but there is a reason Lisp is relegated to academics.
