As a Go programmer myself, the syntax of Go is simple yet effective. You are in control of what should be done, and Go will make sure all edgecases are covered in _defined_ behaviour like a managed language would. In C, reading out of bounds is legal (except when the address is not accesdible). In Go, you will get a panic (that you can still catch, but its pointing out an invalid program state).
