Not necessarily. In addition, this kind of program can be really useful for development.

I use "python3 -m http.server" a lot when I'm just testing a bit of HTML/JS and don't want to setup a whole virtual host within Nginx/Apache. It just starts a static file server, on any platform.

So just like go except with benefits.
