Duke Nukem Forever jokes, really? Look, Perl 6 can either be a "crazy complex" language that is "over-designed" and "hard to read", or it can some sort of toy with laughable complexity (your supposition is that Perl 6 is to elite programmers as Duke Nukem Forever is to elite gamers).

So which is it? Complex enough for only elites to grasp? Or just some toy language with no real capabilities, let alone unique features of interest to elite programmers?

I think you misunderstood or are trolling. This is a Haskell to Perl 6 guide. Haskell is for the elite programmers. Perl 6 is the Duke Nukem Forever of programming languages. This of course was all tongue in cheek.
