I can see why Go might become annoying with that kind of file system hierarchy but I think it's an easily solvable problem. Most IDE's I've used allow you to set custom $GOPATH variables and for the CLI stuff you could write a wrapper makefile or similar. I understand that different people find themselves preferring different programming languages based on their syntax, features, tooling, etc. But I do think it would be a shame not to use a language you conceptually like just because of a single and easily changeable environmental variable.
