If you ask me, the only advantage of Lua, is that it's easy to learn.
Everything else is disadvantages. If you have choice - avoid it like plague.
No strict syntax (only procedural parsing of source code is
possible), braindead
typization, everything defaults to global scope (so-called global polluting),
slow addressing of global scope, thus you have to localize (reassign) about
every function and structure you're using in single script...

Brilliant, isn't it?
