It's not about that. Haskell has tools to do all that, and they are better. You can write imperatively in Haskell, you can write strictly or lazily in Haskell,

It's not about that. Haskell has tools to do all that, and they are better. You can write imperatively in Haskell, you can write strictly or lazily in Haskell, you can have dynamic types in Haskell. There is actually more choice. However, one (unfortunately) needs to study it to see it. I like Lisp, but curiously enough, it has its limits too.
