fp is cool until something doesn't quite work as you expect and you're left wondering wtf and you can't debug because your 'clever' and 'elegant' one-liner is actually wrapping 10 different things and all you can do is stare at it and think and hope some epiphany about what's wrong pops into your head.

The epiphany that should come to you is that all programming is garbage and you're wasting your life

so code within files needs to be ordered and the files themselves need to be ordered as well

Is this true of all fp? Like I've mainly done programming in the small type stuff for course work in scheme, sml, and some racket so I haven't had to deal with this, but it sounds hosed up.

e: Possibly less hosed up than having to worry about link order with large C projects though, now that I think about it.
