   But this isnt quite fair since in LISP everything is a list, but in 
   RDF we need to say this is a list, which would add one more triple.

Minor correction: It is not true that in Lisp everything is a list,
and the information that something is a list does take up space, which
is normally omitted from list diagrams.  (Even in 1965 Lisp had
nonlists, such as symbols and numbers.)
