Document what Strict and Lazy mean #2

Open

Description

@ekmett

Affects:

Control.Monad.State.Strict
Control.Monad.Writer.Strict
Control.Monad.RWS.Strict

From Ben Gamari:

In general it would be nice if the notion of strictness were better
addressed in the major libraries' documentation. It's a nuanced
issue which is not fully captured by a ".Lazy" or ".Strict" in the
module name.

    Normally I'd say issues that originate in transformers and get forwarded by mtl should be raised in transformers. But this is a documentation issue, and I'd guess at least as many people use mtl Haddocks as transformers Haddocks to learn about tell.

    This is a good resource.
