I strongly dislike Haskell's focus on theory. Just show me examples on how to get things done and then the concepts will become clear. The Haskell and mathematics communities too often act like ivory towers that humans have to become enlightened to understand, and that simply is not how my brain is wired. I'm not sure of there have been any studies on the usability score of languages, but I think that Haskell would come out very, very poorly. There's a reason why python is so popular.
