That's not a straw man, it's a valid reply to your first argument about "error handling code being an obstacle to understanding how function works". Why it makes you angry and makes you resort to ad hominem, I don't

Your last sentence makes sense only if you consider “happy path” to be what you call “understanding how function works”. A lot of programmers are annoyed that Go forces them to think about “error path” as equally important. Later many say t

Tackling layer of complexity often feels like this. I remember 2010 and my frustration of evergrowing complexity of networking backend programming (C++ mainly), and discovering Go. "Go made programming fun again" was a common phra

I agree with you, but perhaps walled garden and network effects are not mutually exclusive. I.e. if I leave the garden, I'm losing value of being able to reach many people I care about.
