Re: so it's...

"No mutable state" doesn't necessarily miss that point. In the Haskell paradigm, eating your cupcake simply created a new universe containing no cupcake. Don't worry about the old universe, the garbage collector takes care of that.

(I'm not even joking, the IO monad's definition involves a value of type RealWorld.)
