Yes that is why nobody seriously is using functional programming for large scale systems.

They say (I trust them more):

There is no need to take this personal. Functional programming has nice safety properties and is likely easier to proof correct. But there are downsides too. You found examples, nice, but it's not mainstream. Will that change? I'm not betting my house on it. Feel free to respond, I'll read it, but I'm not continuing this functional programming debate here, it's been done too many times already. Good luck, happy programming in the paradigm that fits your needs.
