FWIW, I think this is an issue of backports needing a new build.
https://salsa.debian.org/eugulixes-guest/elixir-lang/-/blob/cf069ab098dd36f11d9ee49f818e6ecbab4f7114/debian/control
shows the same conditions, but I would guess that bumping erlang to 21
and rebuilding elixir would fix the issue. You might file this as a bug
report.
