My problem with Elixir is kind of similar to C/C++. Interfacing with C code from C++ is easy, interfacing with C++ code from C isn't easy and you end up with loads of ugly wrapper code. The same goes for Erlang and Elixir, interfacing with Erlang code from Elixir is easy, interfacing with Elixir code from Erlang is ugly. And the more people start writing code in Elixir I fear that more people are turning away from Erlang. And even if the entire environment in total benefits from more people using Elixir, that environment will more and more turn into an almost pure Elixir environment with very little of Erlang left.
