Outside of the opinions being expressed, some technical comments.
1. I'd like to learn more specifically what kind of output polymorphism you would like. Right now the outputs are universally quantified, but linked. I've written it in other ways as well, but I could not find any reason in practice to use that added complexity.
In particular, the universal quantification does force you to use the output of the step since there is no other way (in scope) to produce values of the needed type. For that use case at least the RankNType is exactly what you want.
2. Profunctors are not really needed at all. It was more to demonstrate that Moore and T have nice structure. The same holds for Category (and my note about Arrow). In all cases, this is just giving nice organization to regular properties of T and Moore.
