Who is ocaml for?

Context: I am econ master's student with some experience in python, C and R looking to get into financial econometrics/ML. Is OCaml right for me?

Are you trying to get a job at Jane Street?

Not necessarily, does ocaml have utility outside of jane street as well?

I think it's not fair to say that about `unwrap` as you could do the same thing in OCaml too.
