If polymorphism is the appropriate solution, yes. But for a lot of
people steeped in OO thinking, polymorphism is a bit of a hammer for
every problem that looks like a nail. I don't find I need polymorphism
anywhere near as often in FP code as I'm used to using in OO code
(caveat: duck typing is a form of polymorphism and that is often my
preferred approach even in OO, when I'm using a dynamically typed
language...).
