"except generally more cumbersome". So true. Especially if the domain is not "naturally" functional - say an HTML5 game. I am sure brilliant programmers will come up with a functional model even in such cases, but I don't think that is how most people would think. I am more fond of languages like JavaScript, which has features associated with functional programming (higher-order functions, closures) but feels as natural to me as C.
