FWIW, Haskellers often complain about the readability of code that
uses the `$` operator a lot. I've heard such complaints both from
people new to Haskell and more experienced Haskell programmers. In
general in Rust, we avoid infix operators (we have a fixed of them and
-- unlike Haskell -- no way for users to define new ones), and given
the history of `$` in Haskell, I don't see a particular reason to make
an exception.

Cheers,
Tim
