This is just a tongue-in-cheek response that I have no stock in, but I find it funny that the page says "You don't have to reinvent the wheel" after they rewrite Erlang processes in another language.
That's true, but it'd be even simpler to implement a node in x language that can communicate with Erlang/OTP, and let Erlang work its fault-tolerant and scalable magic.
This is why analogies like the wheel analogy are silly - to stretch it closer to reality, sometimes you are eyeing a wheel in Go and a wheel in Erlang, so you’ve gotta pick which one to port.
