That isn't the case at all. The problem is that the types restrict your functions, so you either have to write a Mao function for every type you want to support, or drop the types altogether.

The situation where you drop the types is the equivalent to Python isn't it?

Its not because in Go you cannot reuse existing functions that you've written if you drop the types. In python, you can.
