Judging by most responses form the Go team and/or the community around the language, it would seem that none of the issues listed in the article are actually valid. I.e. this is the _correct_ way to handle errors, sum types bring nothing, etc.

Of course, things have changed since, but what does that say about the previously strongly held opinions of the team?
