If I understand the comment you’re replying to, the loss is the competitive advantage. I.e., if a desire for static types was keeping a large number of devs away, then this development will lead to far more devs using Elixir. This would erode some of throwaway_64000’s competitive edge as those devs also got the productivity gains of using Elixir.
