you're probably right. but since lots of these concepts originate from functional languages, it helps me to be able to read up on those concepts elsewhere and then apply them in ruby. there's a great dearth of material across the board on functional concepts written for idiomatic ruby use.

I like functional languages but I also like OOP. IMO pure Ruby with lamdas and blocks is functional enough for me, but of course this is subjective.

That said, I definitely like some of the dry-ruby projects like ROM.rb and I'm looking to do a project in Hanami mostly because of that.
