> If this opinion is a reasonable example of Haskell programmers' attitudes, I would expect some significant portion of programmers would want to stay the heck away from it.
The opinion that people should get less of a grade if they don't know what they're doing is unreasonable? I'm not a compiler writer, but using exceptions for regular control flow in a type checker sounds very iffy to me, Haskell or not. Why would exceptions even show up in a type checker, for that matter?
