Go and its tooling have a strong "straightforward" aesthetic that appeals to some people. Languages that go after power and ecosystem are in a more crowded battle for mindshare.

Yeah, specifically I see it as part of the "worse is better" school of design, of which I am a great fan. A sort of 'cat -v' aesthetic. I find that working with a language, or on products, that have embraced that mentality is just so much... calmer. It puts me at ease, for lack of better terminology.
