Note that modern does not mean perfect. I'm not sure you answer could not fall into the "this-language-lacks-my-favorite-cool-fancy-feature-so-it-is-necessarily-an-old-fashioned-crappy-piece-of-s*" syndrome?

Were they actually fancy or cool, maybe. They're rather basic features among statically typed languages.

Also, I'm not trying to say Go is bad or that I dislike it. It's simply not a modern language as far as design goes.
