This was a bit confusing for me to read, as it was using an old style of rust that I am not used to Unfortunately, this lint group isn't on by default, but I think elided_lifetimes_in_paths may be on track to be deny-by-default in edition 2021?

FWIW, I think it might be worthwhile to consider removing this chapter completely and just point it to https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/reference/lifetime-elision.html, since there is a large amount of duplication (and, for example, the reference already has this change). If there is information here that is not in the reference, perhaps it could be moved over.

@ehuss oh thats a great idea, google offered this link first when I googled "rust lifetime elision" unfortunately
