The discussion is why isn’t it more mainstream not is it good.
Like you said it’s mostly senior expensive engineers. They are really good, but is it worth it? Do 90% of startups need it? I have had success hiring younger inquiring Elixir engineers also, but the question is about why isn’t it mainstream not how to find a diamond in the rough.
If you are running a company today the fact of the matter is Elixir a a executional Risk and the Reward the risk gives clearly isn’t worth it for most startups or else it would have higher adoption.
