into a single concept called a combiner. A combiner may evaluate its arguments 0 or more times,
and recieves the calling environment as an additional parameter. There is also an eval function which takes in an expression to evaluate
and an environment in which to do the evaluation. Note that functions, macros, and even built-in language constructs like if, cond, let can be implemented
as either user-defined or built in combiners, making both macros and what were previously Lisp special forms first class! They can be named,

passed to higher-order combiners, put into datastructures, etc.
On the other hand, naively executing a language using combiners instead of macros is exceedingly slow,
