The Elixir team took a deliberate step to limit the features built into the language itself, and prefer non-core solutions developed as external packages instead.
For example, they recently scrapped plans on building property testing into the language core.
Which is something I find very refreshing, TBH, having worked with the JS ecosystem, I somehow find this approach to be rather relieving for some reason.
It's pretty much sum up in this keynote (The Next Five Years of Elixir) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suOzNeMJXl0
This isn't directed specifically at you, but to anyone who might have ideas.
