I've worked in a few big-ish commercial projects in common lisp and I can testify that applying standard team techniques (style guide, reviews, communication) none of such effects occur. the foss ecosystem is also not more fragmented than, say, python (although much smaller). and in the times of popularity many big projects were shipped. so I find no evidence of lisp curse (or lisp bipolar programmer) effect being anything inherent to lisp as a language. I can't comment on forth.
