I appreciate criticism like that, because it's helpful and valid. I happen to be aware of this and I do use Conduit often, but it certainly bears talking about.

Oh, definitely don't disagree with you there (PG's article about the "Blub" language is one of my favorites); I definitely think that Haskell is one of the least-bad languages out there overall. I will say that personally I have become somewhat enamored with Idris, but I think that most of the people that work on it claim that it is not production ready, and I've not used it for anything but personal projects. Still, I love that it gives me everything that I like about Haskell, and it's young enough to not have many of the drawbacks, at least not yet.
