How is it any more or less stupid than curly bracket.
Show me another production ready language that has the same level of pattern matching as Erlang.

Who cares. How many people here have implemented individual algorithms and delivered them as units of execution. Sure middleware companies maybe sell a cool implementation of A* or some patented sort algorithm.
You can think of parallelization at system level. Can you handle client connections concurrently (and in parallel?). If yes, that covers a large chunk of the usage domain for platforms these days.

When you move a few lines around to refactor, you have to pay a lot of attention to the "ant turd token" line endings. I like Erlang, but still find this aspect of it annoying.

Can you expand on that?
