I hypothesize that for a ruby programmer, learning elixir would allow them to learn the way erlang works, and then the transition from elixir syntax to erlang syntax would be very easy.
The thing is, elixir is really just erlang with some extra features (which are really compelling to me) and some syntax changes that make it much more readable to non-erlangers. (or at least, I believe it would.)
But secretly, you're learning erlang. And afterwards the transition between the two will be seamless (Because they're really the same language.)
