Why X ? Focusing on X is the wrong thing to do. What has attracted people to Go is the fact that you can build stuff - quickly - with good performances - easily deployable - reasonably solid - can be shared and understood between a lot of engineers at the same time This featureset seems to match with Go. I have very little experience with other languages, so I can't say Go is the only one that can do it all. As for what the Go language is, allows or does... that's really not the point. What matters is what you build with it and how you can build it.
