    We do this in Ruby all the time, we just prefer methods over variables, usually.

    def authorized?
  current_user&.authorized?
end

      I’m a principal backend engineer routinely writing Ruby for my day job, so I’m familiar, lol. But you can’t do it for local variables and that just sucks. Definitely a +1 for Elixir.
