Is this a research language? I don't understand how this offers anything beyond what already exists.

I'm also suspicious of the fact that it's implemented in Go. I would think that someone who knew functional programming well enough to create a new language would implement the language in Haskell or OCaml or even Standard ML.

Also the type system looks pretty bad. No algebraic data types.
