Not just that. Engineers get pigeonholed into tech stacks as well. It's almost as if companies (recruiters, really) think a senior engineer can't learn another programming language or something. They come at you with "we're looking for someone with strong golang experience," when there's no way to get "strong golang experience" without working someplace that uses it.

The time it takes to learn a new language, especially a typical one like Go, is insignificant on a project lasting more than a couple weeks.
