I am not a Haskell expert by any stretch.  But I did play with it a bit.

It's a fascinating language. But I think the language is hobbled by poor
error messages from the main compiler, GHC.  I've been told GHC has a
rather elegant implementation, but that came at the cost of the quality of
error messages.

There was a project to produce a somewhat restricted Haskell implementation
with better error messages, but sadly that project is no longer maintained.
