What does this have to do with the original assertion that "one of Odersky's motives in creating Scala was bringing the power of Haskell into the JVM world"?
AFAIK, Odersky doesn't particularly like people trying to replicate Haskell patterns in Scala. For example, he thinks using monads for most effects is inappropriate.
