I think you could. What you need to convince a strict programmer of is
that laziness gives you modularity. The Graham Hutton Sudoku solver is
a nice example, but it'd be cool if we had a similar example that was
less cheesy than Sudoku.
A dynamic programming or memoing example might not hurt, either.
