This is really important when looking at it from "the outside" (or, one is too lazy to lookup the documentation ;-). Without knowing that, it could be a function that takes a string and compiles it to a function that takes two strings (ie: a macro, I guess). Or one string, and returns a string. Or...

Does this kind of 1/arity have performance implications for Haskell? Does the compiler lower (or is it rise? inline?) the functions to produce efficient machine code?
