You can run Prolog inside Common Lisp:

I don't know how good those implementations are compared to dedicated Prolog environments, though.

And you can run Common Lisp inside prolog: https://github.com/TeamSPoon/wam_common_lisp

And you can't run a JVM in either, so now we know that Java is the best. Or maybe that this measure was pointless?

There's Prolog in Java via GNU Prolog for Java:

https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuprologjava/

We can use that to run Common Lisp which can run Prolog. Lmao

If you reread my comment, you will notice my claim was the other way around. I was trying to point out that the encompassing argument is pointless but showing that neither lisp nor prolog can evaluate full Java code (because the reverse is certainly assumed to be possiblr, of course there is jvm lisps and prologs).

But really which language is bigger is pointless to begin with.
