Even if your claim of "probably ... less than 1% of Go code" is accurate, appearing somewhat less often than 1 out of every 100 lines of code is _everywhere_ to me...

To be clear, I didn't say "less than 1 out of every 100 lines", but in any case I don't consider yours to be a reasonable definition of "everywhere". Especially since such a low frequency doesn't support your claim that "you see runtime type errors too many times to count". Perhaps you're using libraries that are far, far below the ecosystem's average quality?
