dude, scrolling the page is literally a finger on the mouse wheel. I don't think "I need to see my entire program in one 60-line screen" is a good dynamic for coding.
Explicitly handling errors is one of those things that you get used to, for really, really, good reasons, when learning Go.

No, because assuming the next developer knows as much as you is probably wrong. Because reading code you wrote 6 months ago is like reading an alien script. And because Go (for very, very good reasons) optimises readability over terseness.
