Another reason why someone might pick Caddy over nginx or apache is to get rid of OpenSSL (and forks). Go's TLS stack is generally considered to be one of the better TLS implementations out there. Despite not yet having received the same amount of attention as OpenSSL (which the authors acknowledge), the fact that it's (mostly) written in a safe(r) language and isn't as bloated as OpenSSL (which has many features that are completely irrelevant to the vast majority of TLS servers, but still cause vulnerabilities - see Heartbleed) would make me feel more comfortable with picking crypto/tls over OpenSSL.
