A deal breaker, and just when I was starting to get excited!

Plenty of practical reasons for currying, but the biggest (imo) is for use with the pipe operator.

If they don't have partial application now, what are the odds they'll have it in the future?

As I mentioned in my other comment, they do have partial application with _, and it works like a charm for piping! It's automatic currying which is absent.

And that's fine, because currying forces you into impossible tradeoffs when choosing argument order.

But Haskell has nice little functions for switching argument order, and people can easily make them in other currying languages.
