I am an Elixir evangelist, to be clear, but it's one thing to have believers and another to change the world. I think you are right that Phoenix will eventually win the day in regards to real-time, stateful Web applications. "Traditional" REST APIs may be a harder sell, and perhaps Elixir doesn't need to eat the entire Web to considered successful. There are still many Java developers at work after all. I am flattered to be critiqued by you!
