When it comes to learning something like Haskell you are caught in dilemma between two ideas - Should you learn a functional programming language for fun and because it will make you a better thinker? or should you use your existing tools / stack to build something better than you have done before. What will be the better utilization of time?

While I was more oriented to former in the past, I have been inclining to latter, lately, for the reason, that what you have built remains more obvious to show and be proud of rather than knowledge of a programming language which might not be practical to build something good for variety of reasons (not soon to say the least).
