But, on the dark side, Scheme is a beautiful singing siren, resting on the white sand of a remote harbor that is deceptively shallow and bottomed with jagged rocks. She sits waiting for programmers who may have lost their way and find themselves out and about, searching for Something Else. They see the beauty of Scheme, hear its song, and turn their ships toward the white, sandy beaches that frame Her, only to have their hopes crushed against the hidden limitations by the pounding surf of “Commercial Deliverability, Corporate Confidence, and Business Realities”.
