Cool! Glad I was able to convince you. Just note that a lot of people find the functional style kind of unnecessarily mind bending. Like the functional style primarily uses recursion instead of loops for iteration which is harder to reason about (and less performant). I actually agree with them, but I feel that these people got lost in the details and missed the big picture about the benefits of functional programming from the perspective of modules, design and program organization.

I recommend you try building something complex with the point free style using Haskell. It will be a bit mind bending at first but if you get it then you'll see how FP is basically the same thing as using legos to build data pipelines... exactly the style used with unix pipes.
