I know Schemers take pride in how many of their special forms can be derived just from a few fundamental forms, but in Smalltalk they don't even have special forms, everything is just messages and there's the non-local exit ^. Does this make Smalltalk better than Scheme?

That is heresy. The Scheme inquisitors are on their way, and you had better repent for your dangerous questions before it is too late.
My Scheme is a Smalltalk.
Besides the fundamental difference of function-oriented versus object oriented
What's that difference? They are the same thing!

oopfrens should just use functions then
Has Scheme been implemented in Smalltalk? Has Smalltalk been implemented in Scheme?
That is the question.
Smalltalk
Bigtalk when ╮( ̄ω ̄;)╭
Smalltalkers waste all their time on small talk. Schemers waste all their time on scheming. As a result, both groups never get anything done.
