It is just cool that Emacs is written in two languages, it is
like to continents or something connected by bridges
overlapping certain areas.

Maybe we can use SBCL to compile Elisp, and after that
integrate it into Emacs so you would be able to run all old
Elisp without changing the code, only now it would in fact be
Common Lisp implementing Elisp, i.e. the opposite of our
cl-lib (`cl-loop' etc).

Maybe some normalization efforts would have to be done to the
syntax here and there as preparatory steps ...
