Given that the Elixir language has largely stabilized, it may be time
to consider ways to make the compiler a bit more helpful. For example,
it might be possible for some sort of type inference to detect the
following sorts of bugs at compile time:
x = :abc
x + 1
f = 4
f.(1)
bar_fn = fn a, b -> a + b end
bar_fn.(c)
FWIW, this proposal stems from a discussion on Elixir Forum:
"Why doesn’t Elixir check the arity of anonymous function calls"
