Ok :-) me too (typescript)
Same as you and GP.
I'd add that, for me, "functional programming at the edges" is sufficient: I don't need to go full straight jacket / Haskell-style to get a huge lot of the benefits of FP. I can still use an imperative outer shell and still have lots of functional parts in my code which are easy to reason about.
