The objections I personally have against exceptions almost all don't seem to apply for language like Go actually. The thing that annoys me about exceptions is that they can be slower that you'd think, make safety analysis really hard (i.e. regular control flow isn't too bad, exceptional control flow can be weird), and are a pain to implement. And with Go I don't think of those things as being a priority.
