By not using the word Telecom.

Discord, fintech, and sportsbetting also use BEAM pretty heavily.

This is false. Companies may claim to use Erlang in marketing materials, but when you get into them you see that their Erlang use is miniscule. Almost no one uses Erlang for greenfield developments.
They said BEAM, not Erlang. There is PLENTY of greenfield BEAM going on through Elixir.
