Thank you! I think the two strange things as an outsider particularly from more
OO languages are that types aren't objects, and then the strangeness of the
naming convention.
Would it have been legal to define data JSValue as something like this instead?
data JSValue
= JSValue
| JSValue !Bool
| JSValue !Rational
| JSValue JSString
| JSValue [JSValue]
| JSValue (JSObject JSValue)

No; the data constructor used tells it what to expect afterward.

This isn't exactly an answer to your question, but have you considered
using the Haskell Platform (which is recommended for most purposes) or a
GHC binary package?

In C++ you could have something like:
class JSObject {
public:
typedef std::map<std::string, JSValue> Map_t;
static JSObject JSONObject(const Map_t& m);
...
};
class JSValue {
public:
static JSValue JSNull();
static JSValue JSBool(bool b);
static JSValue JSObject(const JSObject& obj);
...
};
The data constructors of Haskell have some similarity to these constructor
functions.
Greetings,
Daniel
