I would say that in my experience everything outside of Phoenix is more explicit than python. There's a lot of hidden implicitness in python that drives me up the wall when I'm trying to chase a bug in someone else's code; I rarely have that problem in Elixir (even with phoenix, usually chasing where the code comes from is not terribly hard).
