1. Stack causes more than zero problems. 2. Stack demonstrates no practical benefit. Ergo, Stack is a net penalty. It's not a trade-off. QED. You probably disagree with (2), in which case, demonstrate otherwise. No vagueness.

Stack - manages ghc versions for projects - provides automatic sandboxing with dependency sharing where appropriate - handles git dependencies - file watch is useful, even when ghcid is available

All of these were solved problems before stack existed. What is it do you think we were doing all those years? Waiting for this groundbreaking thing called stack?

I have no idea what you or anyone else was doing before stack, because the instructions given to beginners were fraught with problems that stack solved. As far as I know, cabal hell was a common experience.

Cabal does not handle git dependencies. What tool are you thinking of?

Nautical mile or statute mile?
