This typeclasses discussion reminds me a lot of complaints about Go's lack of generics. Even without this "glaring shortcoming" Go became the de facto winner in the ops space, by staying a simple language with a smaller learning surface. Elm could be walking down the same route.

Personally I find composability under The Elm Architecture more of an issue than pure language abstractions.

Can you explain what you mean by this and possibly provide a source? I'd like to know how the different languages / platforms compare.
