Have you used Go? Most of your criticisms are, in my experience, incorrect. But ultimately there are tradeoffs, and Go seems to be a divisive language.
In my experience, Go excels at pushing you towards solving the problem rather than yak shaving. And in my opinion that is worth itβs relatively minor frustrations.

Many of us that critise Go, no only have been around the ecosystem since the pre-1.0 days, we also happen to have a broad experience in programming languages since the days writing complete applications in Assembly was pretty much daily business.
