The irony being that most Wirth languages are more expressive than Go will ever be, with the exception of the first release of Pascal and Oberon versions, and the follow up on minimalist design approach with Oberon-07.

When Go came out, I though it could follow Oberon, starting small and eventually reach Active Oberon/Zonnon expressiveness, but alas that is not how they see it.

Even Limbo has features that Go still lacks.
