As an outsider, my guess is not "bad contributors" or "diversity" like sibling posters but an increasing perception that Go is a Google language and not a community language with how events have played out in scenarios like the package management work where a replacement for what the community was doing came seemingly out of nowhere despite the community trying to work with the core team
Note: I could have facts wrong but this is the general impression left which is just as important for respondents on this survey item.

It's insane to me that this is required for contribution to the language's development. [1]: https://golang.org/doc/contribute#google_account https://golang.org/doc/contribute#google_account
