It would have better through-put if it were rewritten in Elixir, I would do it in Erlang but I find the syntax less appealing.

A snippy comeback that isn't remotely as clever as I thought it was. I am now quoting every other sentence of your reply as I try to both double down on my point and furiously back-pedal my use of the term.
