Scala is a lot more like lisp in this way (or actually, the C++ comparison is the much better one) than it is like go. There are lots of ways to write Scala, to its detriment. This isn't meant as a knock on Scala! It's a great language and in particular I think it's been influential on other newer languages. It's just that it does have this "multiple dialects" issue.
