Am I correct that it is not in the core language but provided by Nx?

Yes it is

My opinion is that we can add defn and defnp only because elixir-nx is a core project maintained by people that are close to the core language. I don't think we will, though, add all possible macros there are in the language. We "should" be able to add a customization for that so that people may choose to add other defsomething macros. Not sure how to achieve that now as it should be a compile-time configuration as we are regex-driven in this mode (and all modes pre-tree-sitter).

PRs would be appreciated! It is an easy first fix I guess.
