My personal feeling is that it's purity, immutability and simplicity of vision. That most of Elixir is also written in Elixir helps.

Erlang/the Beam also helps - there are only 112 open Erlang bugs.

For reference Golang has 6843 open GitHub issues. I am not sure what to make of this.

Rust has the same number of issues open then what? You're comparing a simple language that is built on top of Erlang. It has a few issues because:

- the code base is small

- it has a few users compare to other languages

- it's built on top of something else

I was curious and I looked at the std lib for Elixir it's very minimal.
