There are plenty of people, myself included, who would prefer no generics than bad generics. The big reason for me to use GO is it's simplicity. I can pick any programmer, give him a few days to a week, and he will be productive. Python used to be somewhat simple (never really that simple) with goal of having 1 "obvious" way of doing anything. I think GO is better at that, than python ever was, and I think that is one of the bigger reasons for it's success.
