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.
