While I feel like writing Clojure for 5 years would improve one's ability to /write/ Haskell, I feel it'd have almost no impact on one's ability to read Haskell

While I feel like writing Clojure for 5 years would improve one's ability to /write/ Haskell, I feel it'd have almost no impact on one's ability to read Haskell. With all pros (e.g. local reasoning, referential transparency, no destructive updates) and all cons (e.g. tons of marshalling/converting, piles of imports, shitty records) aside for a moment, I think you learn to read Haskell like you learn to read any other programming language: by writing a lot of it.
