It could be modern tribal signaling

  It could be signaling that I have a single binary to just install likely with no other dependencies, which is what I think when I see that statement

    Then why not just say "single binary, no dependencies," rather than bury it under an additional layer of abstraction? A humblebrag is still bragging...

      Because saying it was built with go says "single binary, no dependencies" and more. It also says that it was built in go for any developers who want to contribute.

        If you know Go, which many don't/won't/can't. I've never seen a language so obnoxiously namedropped as Go, it's really annoying. We have such a hard-on for our tools, and it really only results in countless, needless lines drawn in the sand.
