I think correctness is the wrong word. Maybe safety would be better? (Verboseness? Precision?)

Go is quite a stable language. Well-specified, rigorously tested, and conservatively updated.

I think all the behavior you listed is well-defined, albeit perhaps unexpected.

Lack of generics doesn't make code incorrect. Less clear maybe, or easier to make a mistake. Or clearer and a lot more code.

I guess you could argue that it makes writing correct code harder?
