I'm really happy with using F# to write true microservices using the Unix Philosophy.
F# makes me learn to be a better programmer and it's fun, so there's that. Coding using the Unix Philosophy gives me all the goodness that the author seems to want, all without having to install yet another shell. The only pieces of the bash shell I'm developing are the pieces that help solve the problem in front of me. Everything else is stuff that the next guy can't pick up off the web.
I don't like being a fanboy. Maybe next year I'll start playing around with Haskell. But rewriting/replacing the shell? E-gads. You'd have to make a tremendously better case than this author does. (Insert long discussion here about tools, frameworks, and bad coding discipline)
