Some people just don't want genetics. Maybe never seen the use.
Some just want to avoid C++ templates and all those warts.
I think the consensus is that Go community want it done right, or not at all.

It seems very hand wavy for some people to say they want it done right, as if there's a magical way that hasn't been invented yet that will find its way into golang, which is known for being a language from the 70s as far as features go.
