Euphoria sequences are actually rather nice to encode genetic algorithms
with. It's easy to slice, swap, mutate and read genetic strings.
If you intend to write self-modifying algorithms and you aren't using LISP,
you're generally not going to code it in the same language that the game is
coded in. Instead, you'll write some sort of virtual machine for the AI, and
run it on that.

LISP is designed primarily for symbolic manipulations. There are a lot of AI
tasks that LISP is especially well suited for - perhaps because they
originated as LISP programs in the first place.

Is there a specific point where the ability is lacking?

I'd disagree here. C is certainly capable of this sort of thing - there are
scads of programs out there that do exactly what you describe, written in C.
