Doesn't Elixir (and Erlang for that matter) specifically require a module to not be in a specific place in order to have hot reloading of modules? Though I suppose you could still have hot reloading and require a module to be in a specific place.
Not sure, could be that Elixir stuck close to Erlang's module system yeah.
But for example gleam [1] is another language on the BEAM (compiles to Erlang), that has a much nicer approach:
All imports must be declared explicitly, and the import path in your local project is based on the file structure so you always know where something is imported from [2].
