Did you check the discussion thread for that proposal? It was rejected by the mailing list devs: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/15292#issuecomment-2219864

  Yes, I read it. Here is the comment you linked: > Ian's proposal demands too much. We cannot possibly develop all the features at-once, it will exist in an unfinished state for many months. > In the meantime, the unfinished project cannot be called official Go language until done because that will risk fragmenting the ecosystem. > So the question is how to plan this. > Also a huge part of the project would be developing the reference corpus. developing the actual generic collections, algorithms and other things in such a way we all agree on that they are idiomatic, while using the new go 2.0 features The author of this comment is not a member of the core team, as far as I know, and the comment doesn't suggest the proposal was rejected.
