On: Go After 2 Years in Production

Standing firmly in one paradigm is a good thing for a language IMHO. I've worked in multi-paradigm languages and they suffer from the fact that their communities can't find a common style. "Should I use a fold or a loop or a tail recursion?", or some library designers want to be as typeful as possible, others don't, etc.

Neither, use a combinator, like map or traverse. (And that applies to all languages that support this style.)
