I dont know, i have used F# for a while now. My problem with it- is discoverability and reuseability of the created code. It is very hard to read and get in - compared to classic OO and its hard to reuse something created and custom tailored. My 2 cents, may be worth even less, due to my limited experience and a propably wrong approach by me.

It takes a while to shed one's existing OO expectations, but after that, I think you'll find well-organized F# code to be easier to use than C#. Immutability and lack of side-effects makes it much simpler to reason about what someone else's code is doing, and then reuse it.

If you have any specific examples of discoverability/reusability issues in F#, I'd be curious to hear them.
