It's been a while since I looked at Elixir but the different syntax for invoking named functions vs lambdas really left a bad taste in my mouth...

Also I remember trying to do something with the pipe operator that I couldn't get working due to the syntax of the language but which would've been trivial in Clojure using one of the threading macros.

Pardon me for saying it but it sounds like you tried for 5 minutes, gave up because it's not familiar to you, and then said you don't like the pipe operator.

You might have wanted to say something else but this is how you sounded to me. Am I wrong?
