Comment on Pain Points of OCamlparent

Comments

This is kinda my point. I wonder why OCaml gets a full 'pain points' blog post, but Rust's error handling gets just a 'it's annoying but it's actually good'. Like I wonder why OCaml doesn't get a 'these parts are annoying but here is why they are actually good'. This is a pattern I see a lot with people coming from other languages (especially Rust). They have a tendency to over-emphasize the pain points and downplay the strengths (a single line at the end of the post, which is in my opinion the most important one–despite its flaws OCaml is the best choice for your use case).
