(NB: This is *not* Learning Styles, which is not a thing.) I'm guessing the proliferation of monad tutorials is that people think that the last explanation they read was "critical". Research suggests it more that that *happened* to be the one that finally made everything click into place. TL;DR: There is no magic One True Monad Tutorial. People need to learn about Monads (etc.) from multiple angles. Cheers,
