If your program is well factored then it probably won't be hard to switch to IO ten levels deep. Bonus: Haskell makes refactoring easy!

Yes, but what happens to apps which depend on this piece of code? Suddenly the signatures change and you affect everyone with a change which should be completely transparent for them.

It's hard to discuss without an example.
