FP

I think that Functional Programming is almost as much of a hoax as Artificial Intelligence. I have yet to see an interesting piece of code that comes from these FP people.

Functional data structures involving making copies of all data that must change. In a simulation, all entities change every frame, so all will be copied. I see you are talking about the ease of implicit parallelization again. There are other uses for concurrency outside of parallel evaluation, and you can't access these using pure FP.
