I am not sure what you are trying to say. That Go does not have a place because Python and Java exist? My personal experience: I cannot get anything related to cryptography done in Java, thanks to its standard library. I would choose Go over both Python and Java. The choice depends on a lot of things. Regardless, all I get from your message is that you mind the existence of Go, which I believe is silly.

The solution to a good stdlib for eg crypto should not be a new language. This just complicates the landscape. C++ and Python have fantastic crypto libraries. Trying to get one included in Java would've been time better spent than coming up with an abomination of a new language. Go's stdlib has massive gaps in other areas (the fact you still have to write your own "contains" method for slices is a joke).
