This was my #1 turnoff for Haskell as well. All these operators and functions, each with possibly varying precedence as well as different fixities. I was constantly having to lookup how the function was actually being called -- which of its surrounding entities were a part of the function call, and in which order did the calls take place? In addition to this complexity, the functions are often cryptic little characters (operators) that just make the readability worse. Programming languages should make our lives as developers easier, right?
