  13. It would be nice if they focused on the JavaScript backend a little bit. There's issues like https://github.com/purescript/purescript/issues/2577 that show the serious performance issues the language has with its primary back end.

  17. Everyone should check https://github.com/purescript/purescript as more mature language. One of the source of inspiration was the Koka
