I'm still not really getting why "huge" matters though, unless you're doing very small embedded work. Which I'd argue Go isn't a great choice in the same way that running full linux on a limited microcontroller is not a good choice. Every systems language shouldn't have to over complicate it's run time to squeeze kilobytes out if 99% of use cases are running on modern personal computers. (C or TinyGo, or a variety of languages are better suited for embedded) Like, yeah, 5 cents is huge compared to 1 cent, but we're dealing in hundred dollar bills here.
