You’re conflating ease of understanding/reading Go code with complexity of a hard problem. I can personally read the standard library, or basically any library, and I regularly do to understand how stuff works under the hood. But certain problems are hard and are going to take time to understand the problem and solution versus a basic idea of some things the code is doing. Eg: reading how a RabbitMQ library is using a parameter versus understanding the entire protocol it’s handling. Go is very nice in being able to read other people’s code where other languages it’s extremely hard. (Eg: I’ve tried to read the code for SQL Alchemy in Python and it’s… very hard)
