Yeah, so this sort of proves my point :)
I don't begrudge anyone if they want to use Haskell or OCaml for everything.
But personally I am interested in using ML-like languages for language engineering and not general purpose programming (maybe Rust could change that, but I'm not convinced). I program in 5+ different languages regularly so I've dealt with all the friction involved, mainly by explicitly designing systems as heterogeneous collections of Unix processes.
