Re:Why Haskell Is Interesting? (2005) by throwaway2294af on Sunday September 04, 2022 @08:55AM (#32712515)
I think this is the wrong approach to understand purely functional languages.

They don't try to get rid of mutability / side effects, just to isolate them.

See [1] where the author thinks that "In short, Haskell is the world’s finest imperative programming language".
