I think the most attractive part of the Elixir / Erlang ecosystem is BEAM and its ability to manage code, processes and resources in an extremely parallel environment. Rust operates at a lower level and it feels deceptive to just compare the languages.

That said - if you don't benefit from what BEAM has to offer - I agree Rust is a really attractive alternative.
