Totally. I support a team of 40+ and even I have a hard time proposing this. Very hard to go against the herd.

There's so much progress happening in existing Python-powered ML community that, unless there are very good interop tools and protocols (e.g. ONNX and the like), then even if you gain productivity gains w/your local team by moving to Elixir, you risk losing your ability to draft off that larger community's progress.

Very hard trade-off unless you're sufficiently funded to invest in the gaps.
