I'm not sure about it. From my experience it is better to leave error messages as simple as possible. Since when using functions in error messages it is possible that this function will fail and then you will get confusing error message (from inside function).
for most pure Haskell functions, you can be quite certain that they don’t fail, by following simple rules (complete patterns, no use of partial functions like head or fromJust). So while this is might be true in other programming languages, here you can put trust in Haskell’s type system – if it compiles, it works.
