I strongly disagree with this. "All batteries included" is one of Go's strongest points, especially if you look at gofmt, which set a standard for all code out there.

Yeah, I heard this a lot about go. Agree that gofmt is a good call, but it’s not hard to get that one right. I’m seeing more and more of these “included batteries” being deprecated, it’s almost as if standard libraries don’t stay shiny and new forever ;)
