> isn't popular because it isn't ideal and computers work imperatively. Eh, I think it has more to do with tooling and framework support. Imagine if the world were flipped and C++/Java/Python had zero IDE support, slow compilers, and weird/unreliable build and package management tooling, and only third-party bindings to any platform or framework. And Haskell had incredible IDE support, a fast compiler, great build and package management tooling, and official support for stuff everywhere you wouldn't have to think twice about using in a commercial context. You'd use Haskell.
