A bit of a tangent to a tangential conversation, but I wish that Haskell could move towards the "batteries included" attitude of Python's standard library. That is an example of benevolent dictatorship / vertical monopoly going very very well.
The problem with batteries included is, that the batteries might never be the best. I think that's already the case for some parts of the Python standard library, that other external libraries are preferred. Now you still have to educate Newbies which libraries they should use.
