I agree - Nix, the language, really is at the root of many of Nix' problems. The bad error messages, the useless stack traces, and the overall un-debuggability of Nix are not just minor issues. These are at the core of the steep learni

That's how I see it as well - Haskell has been very beneficial for us as a company, so it's nice if we can also contribute something back to the community.
