That is so interesting and is a point where GPT has failed me if this is true. My understanding was the stack was the choice due to having better ergonomics over cabal. Apparently that isn't true? I Found that stack init was pretty decent at setting up a project structure, but can't say I tried cabal init.

I initially installed ghcup via homebrew but found that did not set things up correctly and had to follow the install from their site, which made things work more smoothly.
