Yes, and if you use a code formatter, like Fantomas, it can automatically modify code to be in the more legible format (like Prettier.js), so you don't confuse tuples with list elements. I've been using f# for a couple years, and after the honeymoon phase is over, I've started to really value the benefit of native interop with dotnet libraries. Most enterprise SDKs/libraries (e.g. AWS S3, Stripe, Twilio, Rollbar, etc) have a dotnet SDK, and it just drops into an F# codebase as if it were a 1st party lib (you reference them using object-oriented dot notation instead of functional style, but still it just works). Even when Microsoft puts work into, for example, cryptography security updates or JSON parsing performance, F# benefits from that.
