Yes, Haskell is the one language where you can always invest some more time learning something more advanced that will provide you a large boom in productivity.

That has the downside that Haskell developers speak many different idioms, just like Lisp. I'm prone to claim that the code you posted is basic enough that we can consider that people that don't get it are not proficient on the language yet, but there are way too many things right on the fence for that, and they can't all be required.
