I took a look at Go but it seems to be more of a systems language than a scripting language and I assume that means it's less amendable to "This guy across the country needs this information in 2 hours max".

People say that about Go while I don’t have an opinion. I don’t understand what you mean by your example

The point of my example is that my main priority is coding speed, and other things are an issue only if processing takes a long time. A systems language typically has a much slower coding speed than say, python, which is what I mainly use now.
