You said, you haven't elaborated on tree-parsers benefits, as you think the
linked page did a better job than you could.

But the web page tells me about nothing.

On the first paragraph it looks like if it wants to be a modern replacement
for YACC/BISON, not even telling us, what language it can generate code for.

One or two paragraphs later, it looks more as if it wants to be a language
server, but with a different protocol and less features.

As we already have elixir-ls, and it does its job pretty well and
LSP-clients exist for every major editor, I do not think, we need just
another editor plugin.

Also, as the core team denied to take the LS under the org, I think, they
should deny to do so for this as well, for the same reason they had for the
LS last year. (TLDR: burden of maintenance is to high).
