- dschiptsov 12y agoYeah, instead of having only "nothing" - NIL - they prefer to have "nothing-in-a-box", and "nothing-in-a-bag", and "nothing-in-a-suitcase". Nothing-in-a-container-of-this-kind. Due to such over-abstraction madness for sake of abstraction they end up with Java or Javaesque Haskell code.
