It was not deliberate, it was ignorance. Time and again, the Go team made comments in various forums for years showing they really knew nothing about programming language development past 2000.

All they knew was C and that they wanted to create a language that compiles faster than C++. That's all.

You're talking about Ken Thompson, Rob Pike and Robert Griesemers, among others.

You're not doing yourself any favors.

They're great examples that just because you're good in one field doesn't mean you're good in other fields. Or even open minded.
