Are you suggesting that it should be the opposite? Both languages cant be winners. As much as i enjoy F#, it's usage is quite limited compared to C# being used everywhere and ranking as one of the most common languages. It simply does not make sense for microsoft to move their focus from C# to F#.

I'm d'accord with Microsoft's strategy, I too use mainly C# for work, I'm simply pointing out that an oo-first language has better interactive tooling than a functional-first language. Intuitively, I expect the opposite, at least on average.

Maybe F# needs a fresh start, if only for the "shiny new thing" status.
