There's no such check list of "good stuff" with the Haskell slogan, instead, we've got a list of buzzwords, as bad as company webpages preaching that they offer "synergised solutions", but not actually telling anyone what they do.
I couldn't disagree more. The words used in the 'Haskell slogan' may be technical jargon; however as such they have a precisely defined meaning and actually characterize the language fine. This is exactly the opposite of 'buzzwords', which usually lack a clear and unambiguous definition (but are loved by marketing people). Cheers Ben
