Reflecting on Haskell in 2017

I just meant the interpretation of the data is not fair if you say "not many practical applications are made with Haskell, so it's not a practical language".

So yes, collect the data of "how many practical applications are there in X language", but also collect the data that show why X language is picked, and the results ( quality, bugs, maintainability, etc ) That's very hard to do though.

Did anybody other than you make that interpretation?

I did. I can't imagine anybody other than you made your interpretation, as the asking for data was clearly intended into subsidizing a specific conclusion.

State your assumptions clearly. It helps. What conclusion is being drawn by who before the data is collected?
