You're 95% correct about my view. I do think that matlab/python are a bit better numerical programming languages than Haskell as-is, but only marginally. This is not just due to the library ecosystem, but also because I think that dynamic languages really are better than the best Haskell2010/GHC8.2 library theoretically possible. There are just some things that the existing type system makes a bit more awkward.
