One counter argument is that you're still building on the same foundation.

Likewise C++ isn't going to be as concise as Haskell ever.

So the paper still hold some truth if not mostly valid.

The conclusion mentioned some interesting truisms about prototyping, team-size-induced-complexity and "long bugs" vs "short bugs". Good stuff. If the PDF was not a collection of images of the text, i'd have copy-pasted that bit here. :)
