In Elixir & Erlang, they don’t even have a for-loop construct. You have to use recursion. And I think that’s beautiful. I also think tail-call optimization is beautiful.
Elixir does have for loops.

That being said, I have worked at a company who uses Elixir 4 years now and I have never once written one.
Oh you’re so right, I never use those so I completely forgot :X
