You are kind of backtracking here because I don't see anything about implicitness. I mean okay you can't get used to the syntax and you don't want to -- not something I'd deem a serious reason to drop a language but it's fair enough and it's obviously your right so cool.

But Elixir is anything but implicit. If anything, people periodically raise a stink about wanting some magic in there, and we the wider community just reject them.

Sure, people find different things complex.

For example, I can't make heads or tails of rxjs, and honestly have zero motivation to do so.

Other people see it and find it intuitive.

Shrug.
