I get what you are saying. The code is not very readable for an engineer well-versed is C-style languages.
That said, I was a systems engineer and did a lot of C++ but now don't really understand it anymore because these days it's incomprehensible to me especially after c++11/14 (and I coded in c++ for many years!).
Same goes for javascript - with es7, the language syntax is changing very much (and imo, not for the better). They just keep adding features for no reason.
I just hate that languages at some point try to behave they are some sort of library with non-stop changes :/ So, despite not liking Go syntax, I like the people behind Go. They don't want to change it too much for no reason (yes yes, we need generics). I like that philosophy.
In fact, C is pretty much the only language which has held on to it's core syntax to me.
