I don't know if this is a good way to analyze Likert scale data or not, but: Taking "strongly disagree" to be -2 and "strongly agree" to be +2, these are the sums for the questions:

Score Statement
1544 I am satisfied with Haskell as a language.
1054 I think Haskell libraries are high quality.
946 I am satisfied with Haskell's package repositories (such as Hackage or Stackage).
788 I am satisfied with Haskell's build tools (such as cabal-install or Stack).
780 I can find Haskell libraries for the things that I need.
765 I find that Haskell libraries perform well.
563 I find that Haskell libraries provide a stable API.
556 I find that Haskell libraries work well with other libraries.
259 I find Haskell libraries easy to use.
-290 I think Haskell libraries are well documented.
-308 I can easily reason about the performance of my Haskell programs.
-356 I can easily compare Haskell libraries to select the best one.

Libraries are simultaneously extremely high quality and terribly documented. 🤔
