Sure. I'll be moving to Idris as soon as it matures, since by enforcing totality you gain the advantages of laziness without the problems.

In the meantime Haskell may well be the best option for various circumstances even with that flaw though. (And note that strict evaluation in non-total languages brings its own problems)
