@screwtape @webhat I'm familiar with Reverse Polish Notation from FORTH, but for some reason I never realised there was a non-Reversed version!

In the context of stacks (which FORTH is based on) RPN makes perfect sense, and the context of sexp (which LISP is based on) PN make perfect sense...but without some programming language reason, it just looks ridiculous
