Don't insert words into my commentary that I didn't say. I said Go was boring. You agreed. I said Go wasn't the best designed language, which it isn't. Look at its package/dependency management, memory usage for processes, inability to guarantee a process will relinquish control so other processes can run. Go enforces code bloat that other languages don't. For example, a program in D will often times be half the length of a Go program that does the exact same thing. You are right. Programming languages are tools, not ends unto themselves (something you said, not I), and just as I can use tools from Snap-on or tools from Harbor Freight, I'm personally inclined to use tools with superior engineering. Tools that are designed and manufactured to be robust and to last, because they make it so much easier for me to build meaningful things. I also think it is an unfair comparison to take two of the most awful languages in computer history and use them to make a case for Go's superiority. It is like saying a Fiat 500L is an awesome car because it isn't a Yugo.
