Is it possible to add piping ala |> to Erlang?

I also strongly dislike any syntax that says: pipe to this position. The point of piping is to make the argument and function call ordering readable.

The readability is the flattening aspect of it however, not the implicit argument positioning (which I honestly quite dislike, I prefer a visible marker).

I’m still ambivalent on it though. It’s a nice-to-have but not really necessary here.
