Tooling. Tooling is the major reason why no one uses functional programming languages in industry. I was very into Haskell a decade ago. Today I don't even know where to start when it comes to install a new package. If Debian doesn't have it in their repos I usually just try building it from source and hope make all still works.

My company does FP and I think the tooling in Elixir is pretty great.
