My comment is aimed at the OP who has it very clear in their mind what Go's shortcomings are. On the contrary, you haven't pointed out an objective issue that you have with Go. You offered some harsh remarks about the language but backed them up with praise. I'd say you love the language, but apologetically so. You shouldn't it's a great language. If ever you decide it's not for you then look at other alternatives, rust being one them.
