Go reflection is one of the most complicated reflection I've ever seen in any language. Go's / C interop is one of the most convoluted implementation in existance. To pretend that Go is simple at first place is a lie. Go is not simple, it has a limited syntax, which is quite not the same. Go will evolve, whether you like it or not, even if it takes a whole new generation of Go developers and maintainers to get there.
