That might be, probably is. But the representation of FP gets mostly done by those who are only halfway there, creating an impression that it is a better way of programming overall, when it’s just a mixed bag of approaches dictated by a set of esoteric languages (from business pov). The worst part is that it doesn’t translate verbatim to any non-fringe language and creates a mess in it, due to adopted inertia. At least that is my experience with FP “recruitment”.
I wish I skipped this FP tour completely and instead learned how to structure my programs directly. Could save me a year or five. Maybe there’s no better way, but in practice clear explanations are always better than these arcane teachings where you repeat something until you get it by yourself.
