I would bet a fair amount of money that 90% of Haskell functions do not have 5 or more variables in scope.

Haskell code is not yet written in large amounts in large companies (or anywhere else). Haskell code is, however, written in large companies.

Also: Large companies have a readability requirement? I'm not so sure that they do, that it's enforced, or that it's effective. I;m especially not sure that it's effective to the point that an outsider can read it.

Haskell code isn't written in large amounts anywhere? Define large amounts.

For instance the GHC codebase itself is pretty large.
