While I think it's possible to compare language readability I don't think you can simply place them side by side and expect most programmers to fairly compare them. Python is much more "C-like" and as a result I'm able to read it a little better. I don't think that makes it inherently more readable, it just means that I don't know how to read Haskell at all. It's like if you put some English dialect next to German and asked me about the readability of both... I can't speak or read German at all so I really have no idea. If you can speak both Haskell and Python than by all means compare the readability of the two and I would be interested to hear your opinion but I want to make sure we're not judging Haskell because we haven't taken the time to learn it and it happens to be more divergent than whatever language we happen to already know.
