Agreed, but compared to Go itself, dep is incredibly recent, still in Alpha, not widely used yet and only the last in a series of incredibly many homegrown approaches that created lots of chaos and churn. And when everybody thought the rollercoaster was finally over, vgo came around the corner. It’s a great proposal, no doubt, but it‘s fair to say dependency management and generics were the two largest unsolved daily encountered problems with Go in real life. Let‘s just hope the community gets an Epiphany about the latter one as well soon...
