Did he compare those shortcomings with the shortcomings of not implementing generics at all? Because that is the tradeoff here. After decades of research, a decade of go, millions of lines of public and private code, a decade of feedback, and dozens of languages with generics, it's obvious that the perfect generic system isn't going to just happen, so it's not perfect generics vs imperfect generics, it's no generics vs imperfect generics.
