Agreed.

Just to clarify one thing: I wasn't dissing Haskell or anything, I was just giving a real autobiographical detail. I actually did start learning Haskell, and at some point realised it wouldn't let me build anything new. I'd still love to learn Haskell and still plan to, because I like the art of programming. I just deprioritzed it compared to other things.

(And I totally forgot the Op was clojures’ author, that’s not the reason for the example!)
