Funny way to write a pipeline.  Its neither left-to-right, which would be

   getContents >>= (parseInput >>> either die run)

nor right-to-left:

   either die run . parseInput =<< getContents

A case for hlint.
So much for my smart-ass comments.

About "(to) die or not (to) die" I am rather agnostic.
-1 for adding it to the Prelude.
