Nope, that's not it either, since you can use Elm the language without importing Elm.Html ("Elm the framework"). It's simply that Elm the framework was designed without regard for the problems of other languages, and making full use of the features of Elm the language. On the other hand, Redux was inspired by Elm to replicate the same model in JavaScript while accounting for the deficiencies of that language. The closest you can get to Elm is probably that.
