(It's a HN rule not to discuss down votes) However the problem with the parent post of that it presumes Haskell isn't useful because of X, when clearly it's useful for many and changing X would make it not Haskell. That sort of comment isn't useful. I think for as long as I have known Haskell (1992-) there has been interest in and a desire for a strict variant of Haskell. In 2020 it seems there are a lot more options for that, which is great, but they aren't Haskell.
