They really should have adopted functors and the OCaml module system. By not doing so, it's leaving too much coolness on the table. Instead, they did this thing where every file is actually a module, but not really. Kind of an OO mess. If they are not careful, they're going to end up in Scala hell, where it's FP sitting on top of OOP, instead of a true hybrid language. (Yes, I know it's all CLR under the hood, I'm talking about how it feels to the average developer)

Maybe there are better hybrid languages, but compared to Scala I wouldn't even try calling OCaml or F# hybrids. OO/FP interop in those languages feels like the language designers were actively sabotaging it.
