> Ultimately, I think Haskell is the language that works best at scale.

While i agree on that, i think it depends on what one means with "at scale". I've seen that phrase used to mean something like "having a humongous team of 50+ developers and being able to add 50+ new (preferably cheap) developers (who might not be very well versed in the technology nor the business that we're working on) at any time and make them write code right out of the bat". I think Haskell would not fit very well with that "work at scale" definition :)
