> It's a really weird language to reason with IMO

I know you likely mean regular Prolog, but that's actually fairly easy and intuitive to reason with (code dependent). Lambda Prolog is much, much harder to reason about IMO and there's a certain intractability to it because of just how complex the language is.

What would be some applications it handles better than regular Prolog? Something that naturally requires second or higher order logic rather first order logic?
