Type-level trickery, UpperCase Haskell, is the showy rock-star of Haskell and all power to the Type. I like a good Type as much as anyone, but what keeps me using the language is the work-a-day value-level coding tool-kit - lower case haskell.
Machine Learning
Much advocacy of Haskell, in general, boils down to type-safety and elimination of bugs. How boring. My personal experience is that bugs are trickier in Haskell and I can write bad code in an extraordinary variety of ways.
