Please, let's lose this Elixir = Ruby.new nonsense. Once you get beyond the superficial syntax similarities between Elixir and Ruby the 2 languages couldn't be further apart. Ruby is mutable/OOP whilst Elixir is immutable/FP. Diametrically opposite so anyone who is heavily invested in Ruby's OOP mindset is going to have a shock if they dive into Elixir.
This is the most salient point in the elixir thread so far. If you are heavily invested in OOP, no functional or immutable language is really going to do it for you. Period.
