Interfaces allow polymorphic coding, and they support stack allocated data structures last I checked.

I didn't say you couldn't make polymorphic calls in Go. I said that they don't mix well with relying on escape analysis to avoid tracing GC.

Oh I see what you mean. Yeah forcing vars to actually be stack allocated can be challenging when using interfaces everywhere. What are the Go authors' opinions on improving escape analysis?

I think it's a design issue that can't be truly solved, period. You could try stuff like k-CFA I guess.
