[erlang-questions] Is Erlang a good tool for this particular project?

[Steve Davis]

I am tempted to answer the OP with just a simple "Yes".

Rationale: Erlang/OTP is a good tool for any project, it has excellent
expressiveness, it encourages clarity of thought about a problem, and
it is fast to implement appropriate solutions.

However, of course, it may not be pandemically the best or most
appropriate tool... and I suspect that's the comfort that was
requested.
