i think @GabrielG439 said this in a talk once and i've found it a useful thing to remember sometimes:
> Cabal was built for managing packages (a single package) whereas Stack was built more for managing *projects*, that is, a collection of packages

Stack is the only way I could get them building so I'd have to say yes.

I am constantly helping people, especially beginners, who trip over stack, but "not using stack." Cabal at least works. Try nix.

I know you beat this particular horse to death but stack has always worked for me when I need it, and I do use Nix.

Nah Tony I've taught beginner meetups for a while now and not had it happen yet. Cheers.

I would like to make a bet that it is definitely going to occur at the next time I sit down with a beginner. It has already happened today, in my peripheral vision, and I just sat down with a coffee. Not joking.

But you are on the wrong side of the earth so maybe you need an antipodean stack.
