I think this list is not reflective of a general Haskell outlook. Its reflective of an outlook of people standing _outside_ Haskell (LC is historically a scala-heavy conference) and projecting onto it a certain sort of structure of expectations that isn't actually how Haskellers in general view things. I agree that this misperception isn't a good thing for Haskell -- but its a misperception imposed from the _outside_.
