Where did I say that FP was obviously beneficial? You're reading too much into my question. I was questioning the GP's epistemology.

They do talk like this - go to any Haskell conference and it's 90% engineering papers - much better than e.g. a JS conference. It's just that most people don't even know what PL engineering even looks like, let alone how to interpret it.
