I think the Haskell programming experience is totally different from
the Python experience, because of the functional approach. This also
implies that there is about a zero possibility of introducing the
language in commercial projects because of peer opposition and the
"academic" flavor of the language (no libraries, absent/elitist
community that doesn't even need libraries).

The Lisp programming experience might be more pythonic, but the syntax
(or the absence of it) kinda ruins it too. But then again, Lisp is
dynamically typed but with type declarations.
