A key driver of Go design was compiler performance. Generics make the compiler more complex, use more memory, etc. and presumably require a less performant compiler. I don't know what the implications are for Go with generic types. Either they've convinced themselves that a fast generic capable compiler is possible or the the compiler performance goal is no longer the high priority it once was.
