There's a difference between: "I have a <very large> YAML file, and it takes yq <some long time> to parse, whereas <some workflow I use written in rust/c> takes <much less time>". "Go is slower than Rust, the author should have written it in that". It's likely for most YAML documents you encounter, the difference between using Go and using Rust or C is negligible. -- Though, if this isn't true, some numbers would be useful, too. A comment like "Go is a bad language to use" is just a thought; but it's also a low-effort dismissal of something someone has put effort into, and of a tool that's quite useful.
