[aurelianito]

I wouldn't call Haskell's prelude 'perfect'. For a few examples of imperfect things see https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/master/users-guide/bugs.h... (Find 'prelude' in this page, has several appearances).

I didn't mean to imply all the prelude code was perfect. What I meant to imply was some parts are insofar as the specification is complete and specific enough that it yields one solution. An extreme example would be the id function.
