- JamesUtah07 8y agoI think that's one reason. The other is that classic erlang (Elixir is built on top of the erlang beam vm) sometimes does things one way but elixir has a more elegant way of doing the same thing, however, in elixir you can still call into erlang libraries to achieve the same thing if that's more familiar to you.
