Comment:

 I am not a GHC developer but I am taking the liberty of closing this
 ticket as 'invalid' anyway since I am confident that ''nobody'' in the GHC
 team and/or a Haskell developer in general would otherwise. No point
 wasting their time on this.

 I hope the reporter understands that this is a non-issue.

 1. That is because you are a C/C++ programmer. For the rest of us it works
 fine.
 2. While your point is entertaining, it is also a complete non-sequitur.

 They are not a big deal to add, except for the fact that this language has
 been stable, with two standardized specifications, for several years. And
 finally, no, they are not a big deal in making Haskell more "rapid typing
 programming language".

 In Haskell we think for quite a long time before starting typing.

 Hope this helps.
