Re:Haskell is not category theory by BoiledCabbage on Saturday February 04, 2023 @06:37PM (#34659648)
While that is a great general rule, everyday life isn't generalities, it's specific cases.

Outside of game programming, topology isn't useful knowledge for software engineering. A clear exception to your rule above.

Being an strict adherent to a heuristic and not examining the specifics of a situation is in my opinion a poor habit. Superficially pattern matching will lead people down the wrong path more often.
