I think most people wouldn't call Go a systems language? Generally garbage collection lack of explicit memory access would put a language outside the category?

I think most people wouldn't call Go a systems language? Generally garbage collection lack of explicit memory access would put a language outside the category? Hard to write a device driver, for instance.
