Agreed with setting the standard arbitrarily high. It depends on what problem you're trying to solve—just like deciding when to use any other tool. Context matters. Where I work, we've been trying to build some super-fast systems and things like the GC and even calling interface methods matter. We open sourced some data structures that show just how optimized we're trying to get (https://github.com/Workiva/go-datastructures https://github.com/Workiva/go-datastructures), but in hindsight, Go might not have been the right tool for the problem.
