let's see:

    - OCaml vs Haskell: eager vs lazy  (=> memory consumption is more predictable)
    - OCaml vs Rust: OCaml has a GC (=> comfort) OCaml has tco (could not resist this ;) )
    - OCaml vs Clojure: vastly superior typing system. (=> less bugs)
    - OCaml vs Kotlin: no JVM needed.
    - OCaml vs C++: more safety. once it compiles it will not segv.
    - OCaml vs Go: vastly superior typing system. (=> less bugs)
    - OCaml vs Python: vastly superior type system, way better performance.
The biggest risk of doing OCaml (or Haskell or Rust) for extended periods of time is that you will be unable to hide your feeling of superiority towards (fe) a python developer.
