They add complexity which makes understanding and auditing code much harder. Look at OpenSSL and their overuse of macros, or heavily-templated C++ code.

No one is asking for C/C++ style macros, or even C++ templates. Go generics would be closer to Java or C# generics, which increase code clarity, reduce boilerplate and copy/paste code, and communicate intent.
I see. If it can be implemented as something that make code easier to read and not worse. Why not. But Iād need to see a clear example of that.
