The original meaning of the sentence is correct but it's just very unclear (your patch actually changed the meaning of the sentence). How about: Working with Emacs Lisp can be quite helpful if you want to go on and learn something like Common Lisp. Emacs Lisp has many features of Common Lisp, although it is considerably smaller and thus easier to master. (This changes the meaning of the sentence too, but it's consistent with my understanding of the situation.)
