Ok, you're not addressing the subtext here. Nobody is going to get fired for choosing Python. You are actually likely to get fired for choosing Haskell, in Q1'2009.

Not every program is written in the context of "I need to pick a language to use at my desk job." In fact, a great deal of software is very obviously not written in this context.

Ok, so Haskell isn't ready for things you'd write at your desk job. Got it.
