I still find it weird that constructors aren't first class functions in OCaml. `id Just` is legal in Haskell, but `id Some` is an error in OCaml. Are there any advantages of the OCaml approach?

I really like pattern matching in Rust, but I find myself using it less and less. `if let` and `let ... else` require substantially less indentation, and I often use them for Option values. I don't miss this syntactic sugar in OCaml though. Maybe it's just because OCaml has a 2 space indent, unlike Rust's 4 space indent?
