Hi Guixers,

Why does Guix implement a monad but not a functor and an applicative?


To my knowledge:
Functor: all monads are automatically functors, if someone would like a functor interface, they can implement 'lift' and 'fmap' when needed. There just hasn't been a need yet. 

Applicative functors: likewise.
