"A sense of lost elegance" is surely an interesting statement. What do you think? Have the many new features added to C# in recent versions increased productivity, or have they made the language more difficult to teach and learn?

I made another oopsie, I mean, Open Sourcie. :3

Remember Haskell's newtype? Or F# type abbreviations?

Well, newtype is a package that lets you use similar semantics in #CSharp for a large number of types, including the ability to add semantics and extension-like methods to your own derived types.
