Why I prefer scheme to Haskell

OP wasn't aware of Debug.Trace: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/base/D...

Otherwise, this seems pretty light on technical details -- and big on hyperbole -- "Scheme shares Haskell's unsuitability for production code" -- I'm very wary of people who make claims like that, despite all the evidence to the contrary...

It's rather unfortunate something like that gets voted to the front page, though I tend to learn something from the comments to these kinds of submissions (scripting in Haskell! your slides). Cognitive dissonance.

how do the hundreds of KLoC of Haskell in production at a certain bank headquartered in Singapore feel about Haskell being unsuitable for production?

Languages and frameworks unsuitable from production have been used in production thousands of times. It doesn't prove anything.
