How does that matter? Anyone who uses this defines them in groups one after another. You aren't looking at the punctuation at the end of the line, you're looking at the following line to see if it's the same function name.

It matter because you're assuming they will group it. IIRC Erlang forces you to group it.

It's an incredibly safe assumption to make, though. This isn't enough of a problem in practice to amount to a negative for elixir or a pro for erlang.
