It's not. If you are building a database or other "systems" software these are very relevant capabilities. Also development time of Java may be slightly longer

Also development time of Java may be slightly longer in the early stages but I generally find refactoring of Java projects and shuffling of timelines etc is a ton easier than Go. So I think Java wins out over a longer period of time even if it starts off a bit slower.
It's far from naive. I have written a shitton of Go code (also a shitton of Java if that wasn't already apparent).

So I think Java wins out over a longer period of time even if it starts off a bit slower. I think this topic is far too large to be answered in this brief sentence. I also think it deserves a higher allocation of your words than what you spared for java's capabilities :) But yes, I see now that you are interested purely in performance in your argument and definition of systems software, in which case what you're saying may be true.
