I personally don't see Go and Elixir's primary domains as being equal, or one a superset of the other. So there's some argument to be made about the region where they overlap, but for something inherently based around fault-tolerance and distribution, seems to me that code written to run on the BEAM will be smaller and clearer and therefore more maintainable.
But in any case, Elixir allows a lot more clever code. In my experience working on legacy software, clever code in a dynamic language is error prone and hard to refactor and maintain. Static typing can help, though, I've found this especially true in functional languages where you have a super smart developer do something clever that's hard to understand 5 years later.
Maybe Go does have good primitives or libraries for that, and I'm just ignorant of that. :)
