For me its not the code/language that is un-intelligable (all code would require me to stop and try to brain interpret it); but the fact that the article at least to me refers to too many things at once. Talking about dependency handling, using data structures with dispatch vs direct function calls, data types for errors vs exceptions, expressions, etc makes the article dense to read and hard to skim.
Many programmers have used these techniques even outside FP and would be able to understand it one concept at a time - they aren't advanced concepts to me. It's more that it isn't "easy reading"; but it seems its for an internal audience with assumed background knowledge.
