IMO Go's biggest issue is its lack of the functional features which have trickled into most languages (although arguably without generics, this is impossible to implement). I dont particularly want Haskell with semi colons and braces, but a functional style definitely has its place. Just like Go has a subset of the traditional object oriented style, i think there is a place for a subset of functional.
