I have used the REPL in all those languages except for Erlang. Trust me. Nothing compares to Common Lisp's Slime. Not all REPLs are equal.

Erlang has Distel, which is a pretty powerful SLIME like mode: https://github.com/massemanet/distel (and written by Luke Gorrie, the same guy who wrote SLIME).
I haven't used either Distel or SLIME extensively enough to say if it's comparable, but it looks fairly similar.
Sadly, true. I would cheerfully murder somebody for something as good as Slime for OCaml.
