In general I concur. It’s easy enough to prepend the path and use OTP21 already of course.

There are 2 comments and a simpler elixir implementation awaiting your feedback, I’ve used a sweet sweet shim instead.

Jimmy has a git based build which makes updating a lot simpler perhaps you can give that a whirl?

We could turn it up to 20 directly imo.
