Go team adding a Go language server to core

This is ironic, in that tooling is exactly what large mainframe systems had early on. With extensive tooling can come lack of agility, which can be its own death sentence.

That said, an advantage of being backed by a large corporation is mind share. Having corporate spending on effectively propaganda helps. A lot.

What do you mean by this? Without tooling you can get stuck in the muck doing everything by hand. Tools enable you to do more with less, so I don't really understand what you are getting at here.

I think he means that it's harder to grow/innovate with the language, not that it makes coding _in_ the language harder.
