I think the 'In favor of Go' argument is that the Go authors defer decisions they don't know the answer for yet. They would rather leave something unimplemented

I think the 'In favor of Go' argument is that the Go authors defer decisions they don't know the answer for yet. They would rather leave something unimplemented, then do it the wrong way.
But maybe you are right and they didn't anticipate these issues! I have no idea either way :)
- infogulch 6y agoI appreciate the answer "I don't know" when it's the right answer. And I think the Go team is an excellent example of holding steady on "I don't know" until the answer arrives, despite all the flak they've received for taking their time. I also think the way they've decided to go about announcing/framing these recent drafts is smart; they're learning from the past.
