It's better than that Java/.NET shit where "hello world" takes several dozen megabytes, a reboot, a background update service, a startup time in the tens of seconds, a security update every month, and an UI that always looks sightly out of place on any theme on all systems; not to mention it doesn't really "run anywere" - in fact, it'll run in far less places than a very poorly written C application.
I'll take the Haskell way every day - and so will your prospective users, when faced against two functionally identical programs, one of which isn't fagged by some retarded runtime framework.
tl;dr: If Haskell or Delphi (or, to a large extent, even Visual Basic) didn't need a framework, nothing does. Stop being retarded.
