You would probably find yourself asking similar questions a lot in OpenBSD land - they're very committed to stability and security even if it means forfeiting many modern features. As I say in another comment, wanting to run Go on OpenBSD the way it does on Linux is a collision of very different philosophies. Hard to say one is wrong, but if they want to coexist one of them would eventually have to compromise, and it was never going to be OpenBSD in the end.
