Really, a question, on experiences. They got performance gains. But would GO be as useful for the quick ad-hoc programming that python seems to be great at?

Really, a question, on experiences. They got performance gains. But would GO be as useful for the quick ad-hoc programming that python seems to be great at? or, Could GO also be a replacement for quick ad-hoc programs. Since ad-hoc always grows into something un-supportable. If GO is option, then maybe start with it first?
