Then don't? This is just being opinionated in the other direction and declaring yours the right one.

This is inane. The approach GP is talking about lets any developer manage the space above their project however they care to. The `GOPATH` approach forces this one structure upon you.

It's like arguing that marriage equality violates your right to believe a marriage is between one man and one woman. One side is arguing that folks should be able to decide what's best for themselves, the other is saying it must be their way. One of these perspectives forces their preferences on the other. And it's not the GP.

That's basically the point.

No, it's more like the Pythonic "There's one way to do it."

Nope, because it's "There should be one obvious way to do it." and you can still do the non-obvious way if you prefer.

It doesn't force anything upon you.
