This is great. I can say I've used and encountered literally all of these techniques many times in every Haskell codebase I've joined and built. The concise cost/benefit analysis very helpful.

I'm slowly grokking Haskell and I like the genius (or madness?) of having the type system do a lot to verify that the program is correct. I just started reading about liquid types and I'm loving the idea : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37349276
