I hate the fact that Haskell was defined to neither trap the overflow or just treat everything as Integer [like Scheme]. A sacrifice of program safety in the name of efficiency. I disagree with this choice and posit that a clever implementation can minimize the cost of the overflow checking in most relevant cases. I wish this fatal flaw would be reconsidered for the next major revision.
