@SwiftLang “better, more valuable…than Haskell”?

Erik Meijer tweeted:

At this point, @SwiftLang is probably a better, and more valuable, vehicle for learning functional programming than Haskell.

Given Erik’s deep experience and knowledge of functional programming, such a tweet has to give you pause.

Less daunting was the “67 retweets 56 favorites” by the known users of SwiftLang. 😉

A more accurate statement would be:

At this point, @SwiftLang is probably a better, and more valuable, vehicle for learning functional programming than Haskell, if you program for iOS, OS X, and watchOS.

Yes?
