In my experience with both languages, while the Go spec is incredibly readable, navigable, and succinct, the Python reference is a sprawling mess that is difficult to navigate or even to Ctrl-F in.

To be fair, Go is also a much smaller language, which hasn't gone through the process of collecting and shedding multiple layers of legacy, and exposes far fewer implementation details.
