It is driven by ideas. People with ideas tend to use the tools that materialize these ideas in their free time faster and better, with joy and beauty, It comes to my mind the first Jazz players that invented a new tradition, choose to play sax and trumpets because these instruments were easier to learn, small, very expressive, portable and brighting. Sometimes a long tradition of doing things in a certain way is an obstacle for innovation. If you think that Haskell can not compete with the tons of boring stuff for doing the same boring applications then you missed the point <br>
