I was actually shown this by another Haskeller once, and I agree that Haskell is a very expressive language allowing for a myriad ways of doing things, including the concatenative paradigm.

But I have always doubted that if the language doesn't explicitly endorse a particular paradigm, you will find it pretty awkward to work with other people. Which is why less expressive languages that emphasize particular ways of doing things still make sense.
