I like barewords in Ruby but they don't hold the same value for me in Elixir. In Ruby I was trying to write code in a way where it didn't matter all that much where stuff was coming from. In Elixir I want to know exactly where stuff is coming from and what it is (like how we generally don't `import Enum` or the like).
Not to say you shouldn't like barewords! It is nice that Elixir enables that possibility for those who want it!
