Re: [Haskell-cafe] Line noise

I suspect that most of the complaints about line noise stem from this - to beginners Haskell expressions just look like sequences of identifiers with no apparent grammar to "bind" them together.

This was the exact complaint that some people voiced, yes. (The (.) and ($) operators just compound the problem.) Somebody else then came to my rescue and pointed out that "everybody says Lisp is unreadable because it has too many brackets - despite the fact that those brackets theoretically make parsing utterly trivial". ;-)
