Understanding Elixir's List.to_string

I made a blog post

Although, I’ve been on this forum for quite a while, I am still very early in my journey learning Elixir
I came across a post on stackoverflow for someone struggling to print a list next to some text
a seemingly trivial issue, which led me to investigate the horror that is List.to_string

Anyway, I think I finally got it, so I made a post about it, a short one, but hopefully it will help make List.to_string less Strange than other things

I still need to unravel the truth behind BitString , the book I am currently using confuses more than it clarify

Where Next?
