So stop thinking "arc" - which is an exercise of "proving" how great of it will be when it finally is - and use ONE OF SEVERAL existing micro-lisps THAT ARE AVAILABLE TODAY, and actually, have been for years.
Use newlisp - http://www.newlisp.org
It's tiny, it's monolithic - one 250k executable, no need for "system installation", it has all modern networking and APIs built-in, easy and direct access to C libraried, operators on high level, and speed of perl/python.
OR: - use picoLisp, which is more cryptic, but very, very usable and practical - what is proved by it's author's consulting experience.
Do not play with Graham's talkers - use one of the implementations that already do and surpass what "arc" only purports to become
