Name me a single company that uses Haskell 2010. It's completely irrelevant.

But I'll leave you to argue with Vitaly Bragilevsky (speaking at Galois):

"Haskell is a big language" -- https://galois.com/blog/2018/11/teaching-haskell-in-the-real...

Or Paul Hudak, Philip Wadler, and Simon Peyton Jones:

"Haskell is a big language" -- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/... (p.28)

Maybe those guys know something.

It's cool Haskell goes through a small IR. That doesn't make TH, rewrite rules, CPP, the million extensions, STG, the runtime, the gigantic syntax, or the quarter million SLOC implementation simple.
