I don't know Go (didn't got a good first impression), and don't know what those libraries are, but nearly every time I've seen somebody say "you don't need this on language X" it was true, and the problem goes away after the requesting person really learns language X, instead of writing language Y code in X.

Maybe Go is a exception, but there's a lot of people happy to use it. (Yes, there's a lot of people happy to use PHP too. Those things always have exceptions.)
