F# uses .NET's generics, so the statement regarding List/Set is completely incorrect (all base collections are generic).

I think you misread their claim - they said that generic list/set would have to be classes, not modules (generic modules are a specific thing in OCaml and aren't the same as a module of generic classes).
F# has "generics" just like Python and PHP now "have types".
It's not a yes/no feature.
Give F# a try. It has, and always had, true generics.

FTFM: It's not a true/false feature.
