What is the difference between a list build up of Cons and a "tuple" made out of pairs? I think the latter wouldn't really add anything new. A question of my own: is there much difference between e.g. data MyData = MyData Int Bool Char and type MyData = (Int, Bool, Char) other than the syntax of course?
