I'm not actually criticizing GoLang, just pointing out some facts.
1. is fair.
2. I'd argue is false, given Fuschia and Dart are tightly integrated (as another commenter noted) and that GoLang was originally designed as a C++ replacement born from the Plan9/Inferno tool chains (certainly "OS-level"). Also there's a ton of non-kernel code in an OS so this is a really blurry distinction. containerd does some pretty low level stuff with Linux and GoLang is perfectly capable of this.. if Fuschia wanted to use it they could.
