This comment reminds me of something I read recently on Yaron Minsky's twitter:
"An odd habit of functional programmers: when confronted with a nice, but clearly imperative way of structuring a program, they will often declare that this technique is in fact functional." (https://twitter.com/yminsky/status/950883335324225541 https://twitter.com/yminsky/status/950883335324225541)
and then
"Case in point: structuring a program as an imperative, deterministic state machine, where the state is determined fully by the state machine logic plus the sequence of transactions." (https://twitter.com/yminsky/status/950883598189686784 https://twitter.com/yminsky/status/950883598189686784)
