The things that have always tripped me up for Erlang are capitalized variables, lowercase modules, and bare word atoms. There certainly isn't anything wrong with those choices, but it is counter to everything I'm used to from other languages that it presents some cognitive overhead. In the end, even as somebody who cares about the look of code a lot, it doesn't matter to me. The BEAM and OTP are elegant enough to compensate for any syntax.
