Discussion on: I've noticed a lot of improvement in error messages across several libraries lately, is this Elm's influence?

In my experience things generally get better because programmers are confronted with it and resort to fix it. To quote ESR "Every good work of software starts by scratching a developer's personal itch."
So in this case people got annoyed enough to fix the quality of error reporting. Generally dogfooding is a testament to quality software frameworks.
