I do not propose "OCaml, The Language Of Cynics!" as a marketing
campaign.  :-)  Rather, I just think Alexander's original comment was
insightful.  One might choose to compare the meaning of the world
'cynical' with that of 'pragmatic', and how they both relate to
'idealistic'.  We'd all agree that OCaml is pragmatic in its choices, it
doesn't straitjacket.
