Why is Haskell considered good for writing a Compiler/Interpreter?
It is not nearly as annoying to left-factor parser combinators than it is to left factor CFGs, you just need to use appropriate combinators like chainl and chainr. And you'd want to abstract over common patterns in your CFG anyway, that is a strength of parser combinators! Compare this Earley example and my parser combinator example below.
