This would be an easy way to make no one want to use Phoenix. Elm is just way too different and the truth is that while it's cool it's an ML so it's "weird" and most devs seem to be doing fine with just modern JavaScript. Having to either learn a new language or remove a plugin just to get something basic going would suck. ES2015+ is the CoffeeScript of Phoenix. And like moosingin3space says, Elm support is just a plugin away.
