What easy problems are tough in F#? I’ve been using it for writing random scripts and as a Python replacement.

It's an overgeneralisation.

If you try and turn F# into Haskell at home you may run into that problem.

F# is functional first language so if an object oriented or procedural solution is the right call the options right there when you need it.

Writing recursive descent parsers in F# is a lot of fun with ADTs and pattern matching.
