Indeed, Go is reduced to the bare essentials!

That's why it has primitive types representing complex numbers, which maybe 1 in 10,000 projects will use.

It doesn't have enums though, because who needs those?

No need to be so salty. No-one is claiming that Go is an ultraminimalist language, just that it's relatively simple compared to most of the alternatives.
