Agreed, but I'd take this into a different direction and argue that code generation - as it is often practiced in Go - is a Clever Thing (TM).
A language like Haskell lets me write extremely complicated code, but it also lets me concisely express the constraints I want in the form of types without getting too verbose. Go lets me do neither.
