In reading, it sounds like some of the code for certain languages wasn't even executed/tested? They just had people take a shot at it and then other people reviewed the code informally? It doesn't sound like there were very stringent test cases written beforehand. Also this paper was published by the people who wrote the Haskel version, and the whole thing, once you see that, reads like these guys did a better job in way less time and maybe understood goals better without having attended the first conference. I wish there was documentation of what the actual program and input data looked like. Something this text based.... it almost sounds like you could give it as an Advent of Code day 23 puzzle and somebody will have a Python solution done for it in 45 minutes.
