I agree completely. But FP also agrees. So it's unclear to me why you think anyone enamored of it would disagree. I think it's fair to say that the whole point of FP is to make focusing on behavior a *safe* thing to do. But to be clear, I'm not enamored with FP. It's a tool like any other, apt in some circumstances, abusive in others. Those who would trade expressiveness for safety deserve neither.
