What do you mean no where near as complete feature wise? Go or specifically the TinyGo implementation?

Seems to do exactly what 99% of people need.

"Seems" is an outside perspective. There are loads of hardware features that it just doesn't support on various boards, and lots of extra hardware (like sensors) that it has no libraries for. It's not just the MCU/CPU that matters here.

Feature parity is fine but support is not quite there. Doesn't support WiFi on NodeMCU boards last I checked.
