Sure—but that’s a property of the inferred types moreso than the mere application syntax. It can be hard to revisit or understand the type of JS or unannotated Python expressions, too—but unlike those cases, the unknown-to-the-reader type of the Haskell code will always be known on the compiler/LSP side.
and a few weeks down the line authors also turn back into new readers...
I have a lot more long term memory than that.
