A comment on Why F# could be the next mainstream programming language (2024). Parent comment
The first plan was to bring over Haskell, and Don (the creator of F#) implemented support for generics in dotnet.
The reason, why C# has an edge over Java, when it comes to generics. ;)
Then he noticed that Haskell wouldn't run on that runtime back then, and they chose OCaml instead.
