If you know that the value is always Just by construction, why don't you
express this with the types, i.e. by turning from 'Maybe a' to 'a'? When
asking this question myself I could remove fromJusts in most cases. The
problem is most oftenly that you drop the information that a value is Just
too early and then you cannot recover it later.
