The definition of Maybe (at least in the Hugs prelude) is:
data Maybe a = Just a | Nothing
deriving (Eq, Ord, Read, Show)
The (to me) unfortunate consequence of this is that "Nothing" is the upper
bound of the type (as opposed to the lower bound, which makes more sense to
me intuitively).
Was this a conscious design decision?
...and if so, why?
Thanks.
