I've used Elixir in production since 2016 and I have only had to deeply introspect erlang code exactly once, when I had to implement OIDC using Ueberauth and it used the underlying oidcc erlang library (which was extremely cryptic and wasted days of my life with absolutely useless error messages).

And then I remembered why erlang never picked up. It was a huge pain in the butt to try to read the erlang. Didn't like it at all.

Apart from that, we've done tons and tons of work in elixir and never had to touch Erlang, and for that I'm eternally grateful.
