I find the language really solid but asking on r/golang is quite an adventure. It's extremely distant from go's spirit, the grammar is even more rich than Rust. Typical example: let, run, with, apply, and also - they all practically do the same but with a different scope of this and return value. Just looking at the flow API can get your head spinning. To illustrate how much it's completely the opposite of Go, see how Rob Pike pokes fun at map/filter and tells people they should not use it . I guess you can't force all developers to adhere to this mental model, but that's about it, but that's about it, technical arguments are irrelevant except for extremely niche concerns about memory and startup time
