You want Go to be designed by the Internet equivalent of a cooperative? Isn't that how you get stuff like C++?
For some things Democracy is excellent (governance of nations, because it might be the least bad option). For other things a dictator is good (Amazon seems to be providing a lot of societal value under Chairman Bezos) . For yet other things perhaps a motivated group of technocrats might be better (Go).
I don't suggest I know the answer definitively. I could be wrong. But Go's results are good. Perhaps it would be fair for me to concede that I should examine this question again in 10 more years. What is good for 5-10 years might show problems in 20-50 years time.
After all, even communist North Korea was a relatively functional place for a time.
