Go is good, and yes, every language has serious flaws. I think what you really meant is Go is nothing special. It's a nice language with nice syntax, but the ideas behind it aren't different. The reason people like Rust is it is different. It's what people wished C++ could have been so many years ago. With that said though, each of the languages have its place and uses. Sure many things can be done with both of them, but some things only Rust can do/will be able to do(many unstable things still). Both languages will be successful imo. I can see Go and Rust being taught as the primary languages in the academic world and in the enterprise world. If I were starting out in school, I'd probably pick Go and Javascript.
