I can corroborate: That same feeling of as simple and terse code as possible happens in Haskell too. However the most popular professional style of Haskell code is far too verbose for me to be able to "see the essence" in many cases without a round of refactoring. Its far worse and far more grating for Java code that makes you do so much for so little.
