The main critics is that it does not support type classes, but maybe that is actually not a bad thing. The discussion is similar to the never ending Go discussion about generics and people do amazing stuff with Go (now I guess critics would say they would do even more amazing stuff with generics). Not that I say type classes (or generics) are useless, but keeping a language simple (in the sense of keeping the feature list small) has benefits on its own. I did not to complicated projects in Elm, but I watch the language closely and really like what I have seen so far, so I hope Evan keeps up the good work, as I think he has pretty good taste for language design.
