Haskell is difficult to learn! For virtually everyone. Especially people who already learned more mainstream languages, because it is so different. When I learned Haskell I was frustrated by its difficult learning process until I stuck with it long enough, as did almost all who passed the learning curve. How do you get any reference to "smart enough" out of this? "persistent enough" is definitely relevant for learning Haskell, though.
