You're definitely not alone in disliking the syntax.

I agree with most of your points, from what I've seen, except the last one.

One thing that Elixir seems to get right is a sane string implementation out of the box.

Not only strings, but better error messages, the new breakpoint support, functions for working with collections, protocols, tasks, etc. It goes quite beyond tooling.
