Help wanted with a mysterious Dialyzer error
I’m getting a mysterious Dialyzer error and I’m hoping that someone can help me figure out what’s going on and resolve the problem. As usual, constructive comments and questions are also welcome.
The original project uses Phoenix, but that isn’t relevant to the problem. It also has a pretty large code base, which I can’t expect anyone else to examine. So, I’ve extracted the problematic code into a pair of (much smaller) Mix projects located here.

ModestEx failed to build on my macOS Catalina (10.15.2) system, due to a missing cmake command. After I did a brew install cmake (and cleaned out the relevant deps), the build “succeeded” (with bazillions of warnings). However, iex -S mix then refused to start. (backs away slowly…)

I rewrote the edit_body/2 function (and friends), using regexen rather than Floki to perform the editing. Normally, this would be a Bad Idea, but in this case (a) the edits are straightforward and (b) I control the input syntax.
In any case, the code now works and passes Dialyzer. The new code is available in smalltoc.
