Real world Haskell code isn't the codegolf you are implying.

In fact, I think real world Haskell devs overcorrect and make code too verbose.

Also, "brevity is not a virtue in programming languages" is something I disagree with.

Walls of verbose code are just so damn mentally taxing. Especially hen you finish reading and saybto yourself "all that code just to do X?".
