It's all down to opinion. This is all IMHO. I've found Python to be quite obtuse at times, particularly with the notion that it's sometimes functional and sometimes not. (Consider generators being promoted and map being demoted by Guido for not being 'pythonic'). Expressiveness is hard to measure I agree, but I find enough utility in Go to perform the same amount of work in a roughly equivalent number of keypresses. That's my metric.
