Reason: Why swift is Fruit flavoured OCaml

[shineli-da]

The official doc says:
Swift. Fruit-flavored OCaml! https://reasonml.github.io/docs/en/what-and-why

I want to know why before I can quote it.

I didn't write the words, but I'd guess that it's because Swift was developed at Apple (named after a fruit) and is stylistically similar to Reason/OCaml in many ways.

I don't know why that would be -- Swift is a language which is not very similar to OCaml at all, even if it has some OCaml flavoring with the type inference and discriminated unions

[yawaramin]

@ubsan I guess we consider it a spiritual descendent of OCaml, by way of Scala.

I think this issue can be closed, @shineli-da ?

[shineli-da]

Yeah sure. Thank you all.

Or maybe it's Camel flavored fruit?
