It is not unicorns either.

* Transforming a collection means doing boring for loops instead of one-liners. * interfaces/duck typing is great. But hey, []interface{} does not fit into interface{}. * Structs with fields are encouraged, but there is no uniform Uniform access principle and that sucks. * etc

But definitely, my own "science" confirms that it turned to be out less of a problem (for my own usage) compared to better languages with more friction.

Yep. I've been bored by the fact that putting an []int into an []interface{} doesn't work, too (although the reason is obvious).
