Even if you had said only the last 15 years, that would still include languages like Clojure, Rust, Typescript, Swift, and Julia. But from 20 to 30 years you start to get into the league of: C# and Java, R, Lua, PHP, Ruby... In other words, there is no way you can prove your assertion.

I just stated that I found the assertion plausible where languages from the last 20 years were concerned and wondered why you were so certain Go could not be at the top.
