None of haskell's warts are near bad enough that they should put you off learning the language or using it successfully. Records are a particularly weak point (sort of the simplest thing that could possibly work) which some people care very much about, and others don't care about at all. I think it depends heavily on the sort of code you're writing; when I'm writing libraries I never use records, but others find themselves working with very wide product types with lots of `Int`s or whatever that need to be disambiguated and for them this is a big deal.

I'd say the other biggest warts or deficiencies which are being actively discussed are related to the module system, e.g.: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Backpack ; I also don't find this to be a huge pain point, but I'm told by people with experience with ML-style modules that we're really missing out with the module system we have.
