Even worserer, there are EXCEPTIONS.

I was going to enjoy some necrophiliac magic experience, but my advances towards the vintage thread I have so delightfully excavated were turned down.

Not getting dubs is paradise compared to what you have to go through to get optional and kw-args in Haskell:

Keyword arguments are indeed something missing from haskell. Optional arguments, however, don't play nice with haskell's type system and it functions perfectly without them.

There's at least one thing that doesn't function perfectly without optional arguments: optional arguments.

As a result, Haskell code is full of boilerplate like

boilerFunction = actualFunction defaultArg1 defaultArg2

Or even worse:

boilerFunction = \interestingArg1 interestingArg2 -> actualFunction defaultArg1 defaultArg2 interestingArg1 interestingArg2

that's just because you read awful haskell
